立法院日前三讀「老人福利法」修正案,65歲以上長者免健保費。不過,行政院日前決定不副署,淪為藍營的箭靶,外界擔心衝擊綠營選情。對此,行政院長卓榮泰今(10)日強調,任何政黨都不該用強行表決,來破壞憲政秩序及財政紀律,維護自己的選情,否則只會讓人民很反感。

行政院長卓榮泰今早赴立法院施政報告並備質詢,他會前受訪表示,選舉還有十幾天,選情當然很緊繃,但政府必須把「維護憲政秩序」跟「財政紀律」放在最優先,任何政黨也不該以破壞這兩點來獲得選舉利益,維護自己的選情,如此只會受到人民最大的反感。

卓榮泰指出,政府從不輕忽對長者的照顧,對70歲以上的低收、中低收及特定弱勢的長者,已長年編列預算補助健保費;至於65到69歲的長輩,從去年至今,地方得到的統籌分配稅款已相當增加,由地方政府依其財政能力來加以補助,是合理的。

卓榮泰說,希望朝野都能在「國家憲政秩序」跟「政府財政結構」的優先考量下,進行所有預算審查,而不是用強行表決、不顧歲出重大增加,也不顧增加預算,讓政府財政失去永續經營的方向。

Jen-Hsun Huang told Trump he didn’t know the person he was having an extramarital affair with was a suspected Chinese spy

Trump said on Monday that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang told him that he did not know that Huang Le, a Chinese businesswoman with whom he had a close relationship, was an intelligence agent for Beijing, and that Trump believed him. The New York Times previously reported that U.S. officials had concluded that Huang Le had been recruited by China's main spy agency and that Trump and other senior officials had received relevant warnings. Nvidia said on Sunday it was investigating Jen-Hsun Huang's relationship with Le Huang, who publicly admitted to being unfaithful to his wife. Trump also said the FBI was investigating matters related to Huang, but he believed the businessman had done nothing wrong.
