US Congress votes to end longest govt shutdown

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : Defiant to the end, Democrats' leader in the House, Hakeem Jeffries, said, "Either Republicans finally decide to extend the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) tax credits this year, or the American people will throw Republicans out of their jobs next year".
41% : The legislation ending the longest government shutdown was passed without the Democrats getting the extension of Obamacare, the health insurance programme adopted during former President Obama's presidency, and measures to avoid the huge increases in costs to those participating in the programme expected to start next year.
13% : Trump and the Democrats were locked in a battle of wills, with Trump and his party refusing to give in to the Democrats on Obamacare, and the Democrats refusing to budge.
