(Photo by Shauneen Miranda\/States Newsroom)<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">WASHINGTON \u2014 Democratic and Republican lawmakers remained far apart Monday with just over 24 hours until a federal government shutdown begins, after a White House meeting with President Donald Trump and congressional leaders meant to spur negotiations.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Senate Majority Leader John Thune, House Speaker Mike Johnson, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries emerged from the White House just after 4:30 p.m. Eastern still entrenched in their positions.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Democrats are demanding promises to lower rising health care costs, and Republicans are pushing for a \u201cclean\u201d stopgap bill to keep the government running through mid-November.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Schumer said he believed \u201cfor the first time the president heard our objections,\u201d but \u201clarge differences\u201d remained.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cIt is our job as legislative leaders to try and solve this problem, or at least fix the problem, and we focused in the room in particular on the (Affordable Care Act) and its extension,\u201d Schumer, a New York Democrat, told reporters on Capitol Hill a short time later.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Vice President JD Vance, flanked by Thune, Johnson and Office of Management and Budget Director Russ Vought, separately told reporters outside the White House, \u201cWe\u2019re headed to a shutdown.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cIf they want to talk about how to fix American health care policy, let\u2019s do it. The speaker would love to do it. The Senate majority leader would love to do it. Let\u2019s work on it together, but let\u2019s do it in the context of an open government that\u2019s providing essential services to the American people,\u201d Vance said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Government funding runs out at midnight Tuesday. If no compromise is reached, hundreds of thousands of government employees would be\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsfromthestates.com\/article\/hundreds-thousands-federal-employees-face-furloughs-under-trump-shutdown-plans\" target=\"_blank\">furloughed<\/a>, while many would be required to keep working without pay. States Newsroom published a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsfromthestates.com\/article\/federal-government-shutdown-nearing-heres-guide-what-expect\" target=\"_blank\">guide<\/a> explaining what happens.<\/p>\n<h4>Health care premium increases<\/h4>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Democrats point the finger to changes made in the recent tax and spending cuts\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsfromthestates.com\/article\/us-house-passes-massive-tax-break-and-spending-cut-bill-sending-it-trump\" target=\"_blank\">law<\/a> \u2014 commonly referred to as the \u201cone big beautiful bill\u201d \u2014 as the reason for rising health care costs.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The law allows enhanced premium tax credits for those who use health insurance on the government marketplace to expire as previously scheduled, by Democrats in an earlier law, at the end of 2025. Republican lawmakers also cut roughly $1 trillion in Medicaid funding over the next decade to help account for the law\u2019s extended and new tax cuts.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cWe\u2019re deadly serious about addressing the Republican-caused health care crisis, because it\u2019s a deadly serious issue for the American people \u2014 the largest cut to Medicaid in American history, hospitals, nursing homes and community-based health funding closing right now,\u201d Jeffries, also a New York Democrat, said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Health insurance companies on the Affordable Care Act marketplace have requested or finalized price increases of at least 20% in 29 states, according to an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cantwell.senate.gov\/imo\/media\/doc\/final_-_aca_health_premiums_snapshot_report_sept_20251.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">analysis<\/a> released Thursday by U.S. Sen. Maria Cantwell, a Washington state Democrat.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">All marketplace insurer rate increase requests are publicly available at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/healthcare.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\">healthcare.gov<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Schumer also pointed to the Trump administration\u2019s impoundment and GOP lawmakers\u2019 rescissions of federal funds, including those for medical research, foreign aid and public media, as another hard line for Democrats.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cWe made the point clear that how could we negotiate a bipartisan agreement and then have the president unilaterally through impoundment, or the Republican Party through rescissions, and the president unilaterally through pocket rescissions, undo it all without any input,\u201d Schumer said.<\/p>\n<h4>GOP slams \u2018hostage-taking\u2019 in shutdown<\/h4>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Republican leaders accused Democrats of \u201chostage-taking,\u201d and pointed to a five-year, $50 billion\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsfromthestates.com\/article\/republicans-rewrote-us-senate-megabill-its-last-moments\" target=\"_blank\">fund<\/a> for rural hospitals that was tucked at the eleventh hour into the massive tax and spending cuts package to compensate for health care cuts.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Thune raised in his hand the GOP\u2019s temporary funding bill that would keep the government open until Nov. 21 and said he didn\u2019t understand why Democrats are \u201csaying this is some huge partisan thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cThis is something we do fairly routinely,\u201d Thune, of South Dakota, said of temporary stopgap funding bills.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cThis is purely and simply hostage-taking on behalf of the Democrats,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Johnson said the House had \u201cdone its job\u201d roughly two weeks ago when all Republicans and one Democrat\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/clerk.house.gov\/Votes\/2025281\" target=\"_blank\">passed<\/a> the seven-week stopgap funding bill.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cThat is the record, and don\u2019t forget it,\u201d the Louisiana Republican said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Republicans\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsfromthestates.com\/article\/chance-government-shutdown-rises-us-senate-fails-advance-spending-bill\" target=\"_blank\">failed<\/a> to gain enough Democratic votes in the Senate, which they control with 53 seats, to clear the final hurdle of 60 votes to advance legislation.
