Cory Booker says Dems need to ‘get back in the huddle’ after blowing a big play
Sen. Cory Booker is back in New Hampshire, home to two Democrats who broke ranks with their party to end the government shutdown. Booker is speaking Friday night at a party fundraiser dinner with Sens. Jeanne Shaheen and Maggie Hassan. Ahead of the event, he spoke at a town hall meeting at Saint Anselm College, where he didn’t criticize them directly but compared their actions to missing a big play in football. Booker says it’s time for Democrats to get back in the huddle and work together. As part of the compromise reached this week, Republican senators promised to hold a vote by mid-December to extend health care tax credits, but there is no guarantee of success.
