FIRST ON FOX: House Democrats' campaign arm is rolling out new ads to pressure Republicans to return to the negotiating table as the 2025 government shutdown is poised to enter its second week.

Democrats have sought to make the ongoing standoff into a healthcare fight, with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., insisting their caucuses will not vote for a funding bill that does not include an extension of expiring Obamacare subsidies enhanced during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) is investing in a four-figure ad buy across 13 districts where Democrats believe they can hold or flip seats in the 2026 midterms.

The ads point out that "Republicans control the government" and say, "They just shut it down." The ads in Democrat-held districts say lawmakers there are "protecting affordable health care."

Three of those districts are held by Republicans, while 10 are held by Democrats.

Both the House and Senate are out this weekend after the upper chamber tried and failed for a fourth time on Friday to advance the GOP's plan to fund federal agencies through Nov. 21.

Take note, Republicans, of the desperation Democrats are exhibiting for you to fold and fund their excesses that fill their campaign chests with freshly printed government money.

Boy, they're going all out on this!  They're spending thousands!

I hope this is a wakeup call to the GOP.  Democrats are going all out because deficit spending is their political lifeline.  Without it, the Democrat Party will have no money.  If Republicans balanced the budget, the Democrat Party would cease to exist.
