It comes after nine centrist House Republicans\u00a0joined\u00a0with House Democrats Wednesday evening to advance the legislation to a floor vote.<\/p>\n<p>Now that the House has passed the legislation, the subsidies will advance to the Senate. They are not, however, expected to pass the upper chamber.\n<\/p>\n<p>In September of last year, Democrats in the Senate allowed the government to shut down in a bid to force an extension for these subsidies, which were set to expire at the end of the year. Though the government eventually reopened, Democrats sought a separate vote on the subsidies as a condition to vote with Republicans.\n<\/p>\n<p>Though these Obamacare subsidies may not be the answer, it is clear our health care system needs reform. Let\u2019s pray for the Trump administration as it works to resolve all issues, and let\u2019s pray for the Senate as it considers this legislation!\n<\/p>\n<h4>How are you praying about this legislation?
