對此,蘇巧慧回應,健保費作為社福各界仍有討論,立院未與政院商討便逕增預算,不僅違反憲法與預算法精神,更排擠其他政務支出。

針對選戰對手的質疑與喊話,蘇巧慧受訪指出,健保費是不是要作為社會福利,其實不管是在醫界還是社會都還有很多的討論。這次立法院在沒有和行政院商量討論之下,就直接增加預算,不只是違反了憲法的精神,同時也排擠了政府其他目前的預算支出。

蘇巧慧表示,在編列任何預算的時候,都應該回到憲法的精神、回到預算法的精神,讓制度能夠完整持續,才是國家長治久安的做法。

Bringing up the Su Qiaohui family controversy again Li Sichuan: Young people have a sense of relative deprivation

KMT New Taipei City mayoral candidate Li Sichuan questioned DPP candidate Su Qiaohui's family's involvement in the dispute over the investment interests of "Queshi Intelligence" and asked the Ministry of Finance to provide relevant information to the Audit Department. He also pointed out that if his father is the executive president and his sister is a legislator, he can easily obtain more than 40 million yuan in government investment, which will give young people a sense of relative deprivation. Su Qiaohui responded that the relevant ministries would explain clearly that her sister filled out the form truthfully and did not need to embarrass civil servants because of the election.

The night of Republican defeat: Eight key takeaways from the U.S. midterm election results

Democrats flipped several seats in the House of Representatives, including North Carolina, Kentucky, St. Louis, Omaha and the Texas border region, and captured three seats in Iowa and four in Pennsylvania. Former Gov. Roy Cooper became the first Democrat to win Senate election in North Carolina since 2008, and former Sen. Sherrod Brown made a successful comeback in Ohio. Trump has lost public trust on economic issues, the delay in the Iran war has caused gasoline prices to rise, the MAGA alliance has broken down, and the Democratic Party has united. Trump refused to admit defeat and called Fox News to downplay the impact of the war.
