Greene Backs ACA Subsidies Amid Prolonged Shutdown | JQJO

On day 13 of the government shutdown, Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is siding with Democrats to preserve Affordable Care Act subsidies, citing constituents worried about losing coverage if tax credits lapse. In deep-red Floyd County, many voters voiced pragmatic support, with GOP leader David Guldenschuh calling the stance practical as the district counts 74,000 ACA enrollees. Residents said the move recognizes local needs and protects "the little guy," while some stressed keeping government running. Greene, reelected with 65% of the vote, has not responded to CBS News Atlanta’s request for comment.
