House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) predicted Sunday that an extension of subsidies offered under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) will pass the House with backing from both sides of the aisle.

"House Democrats are going to continue to fight to get this extension through the Congress on our side. It will pass with a bipartisan majority," Jeffries told host Jonathan Karl on ABC News's "This Week."

"If it passes, that will put pressure on Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) and his caucus to reverse course and back an extension, Jeffries noted. A three-year extension of the ACA subsidies " backed by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) " failed in the upper chamber earlier this month because of opposition from the majority of the GOP."

House Rethugs are watching their Party lose elections all around the country... and thinking they should try to keep their jobs rather than kowtow to Trump some more.

Sen Rethugs may not be so worried.
