Rep. Madeleine Dean (D-PA): MAGAt Moses Mikey was "happy people were going to be losing their health care"

"So, Republicans have shut this down," Dean said of the party that controls the House, Senate and White House.

"But much more importantly, Nicolle, what I said to him is, you owe the American people honesty. He tried to argue to me, this is a clean [continuing resolution]. Number one, my constituents don't care about a CR. They wonder why we are trying to do a band-aid, temporary stopgap government spending bills."

She said that people also shouldn't be fooled by the idea that the bill is "clean," as in the bill does nothing more than raise the debt ceiling. In fact, the bill has additional cuts to the government, particularly to Medicare and Medicaid, along with the Affordable Care Act subsidies.

"Sadly, do you know what the Speaker said?" Dean recalled. "He was happy people were going to be losing their health care. He thought they need to go off the rolls of Medicaid."
