President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act into law, lowering drug prices by allowing Medicare to negotiate prescription drug costs and capping annual out-of-pocket expenses.

Every Republican in Congress voted against it.

Nice try, though.

Millions of Americans are going to see their health care costs explode because Congressional Republicans refuse to extend these subsidies.

It is long overdue for the House Judiciary Committee to hold hearings and investigate all potential high crimes and misdemeanors committed by President Trump.

Today, @bobbyscott.house.gov , @pocan.house.gov, @debbiedingell.house.gov, @norcross.house.gov, and @rephorsford introduced a landmark bill to level the playing field and hold dishonest employers accountable.

President Obama signed the Affordable Care Act into law in 2010.

Republicans have been trying to coalesce around a health care plan for over 15 years.

Every House Democrat has signed a discharge petition to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits.

We only need a few House Republicans to join us and save health care for millions of Americans.
Affordable Care Act subsidies that help millions of Americans pay for health insurance will expire in less than a month.

Households will probably face spiking insurance costs next year if a bipartisan deal can’t be reached.
Health insurance costs could spike, as bipartisan ACA deal looks less likely
With a ticking clock and no clear bipartisan path forward, extending the Affordable Care Act subsidies is becoming more challenging.

President Trump is spewing dangerous and racist lies about U.S. citizens of Somali descent in Minnesota, including @repilhan.bsky.social.

These comments are unbecoming of his office and have the potential to spur violence and sow distrust among our neighbors.

The ACA tax credits are a lifeline for millions of Americans. Yet, Republicans are about to let them expire, and costs will skyrocket.

@repmarkdesaulnier.bsky.social gathered health experts, small business owners, and Marketplace enrollees to discuss the importance of extending the ACA credits.

Republicans have had over 15 years to come up with a health care plan.

They need to get serious and work with Democrats to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits to lower health care costs for working families.
NEW: Hopes fade in Congress for a health care deal before premiums soar in January

Two weeks before recess, they're nowhere close.

Senate to vote on a bill of Dems' choosing; expected to fail.

Enhanced ACA funds set to expire, as many Republicans want.

Hopes fade in Congress for a health care deal before premiums soar in January
Billions of dollars in tax credits under the Affordable Care Act are poised to expire at the end of the year. Lawmakers in both parties say they're nowhere close to a deal to renew them.
