GOP’s ‘rubberstamp’ of Trump puts US Senate in play, Dem campaign chair says
WASHINGTON — U.S. Senate Democrats believe they could pick up as many as six seats following this November’s midterm elections, despite Republicans having better fundraising numbers and break-even polling in several states. Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee Chair Kirsten Gillibrand said during a sit-down interview Tuesday that the president's low approval ratings and the ongoing war in Iran remind her of the 2006 election cycle, when the party flipped both chambers of Congress.

One year ago, Senate Republicans voted to spike health care costs for millions of Americans by refusing to extend ACA tax credits. In November, voters will reject the Republicans who are gutting health care and elect a Democratic Senate majority who will fight for it.
One year ago, Senate Republicans cast “broadly unpopular” votes to spike health care costs. Swipe to read.It’s been one year since Senate Republicans voted to spike health care costs by refusing to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits that helped keep costs from rising.

As a result of Republicans’ refusal to act, “about three million, or 13 percent” of ACA enrollees were kicked off their insurance plans, and across the board Americans were forced to pay “significantly more for a[n insurance] plan in 2026.”
As ACA beneficiaries are set to see “a second straight year of double-digit premium increases", furious voters – who trust Democrats over Republicans on the issue of health care by a margin of 24% – continue to cite “rising costs of health care as a top concern” with the midterms less than 50 days away.
