Jimmy Kimmel spars with Ryan staffer over CHIP

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Late night host Jimmy Kimmel sparred with a spokesman for House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) on Wednesday over legislation to fund a children's health program.

Doug Andres, the press secretary for Ryan, included Kimmel on his retweet of a health care reporter who said it would be "interesting" to see how many Democrats will vote against a short-term spending bill that could include a 6-year extension for the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), a longtime Democratic objective.

"Shame on you for making CHIP a bargaining chip, shame on you for tying our children's lives to immigration and shame on you and @SpeakerRyan for doing ANYTHING other than funding CHIP cleanly and IMMEDIATELY," Kimmel fired back.

"Republicans are the ones funding CHIP completely and immediately. Democrats are the ones voting no," Andres tweeted back at Kimmel. "Also, on what planet are Republicans the ones tying anything to immigration?"
