Port: It’s over. Nobody wins.
The government shutdown may be ending in Washington, but for thousands of North Dakotans who buy their own health insurance, the real crisis hasn’t budged an inch. Farmers, ranchers, and small-business owners are still staring down steep premium hikes with no long-term fix in sight.
