John,
On December 31st — just two weeks from today — the Affordable Care Act subsidies are set to expire. Without an extension, millions of people will see their health care premiums increase, causing around 4 million people to lose their health insurance entirely.
Today, House Democrats secured enough signatures on a discharge petition to ensure a vote on a clean three-year extension on the ACA subsidies.
For months, House Speaker Mike Johnson and Congressional Republicans have refused to schedule a floor vote to extend the subsidies. But today, four Republicans joined Democrats to force the vote.
Unfortunately, this vote will not occur until January unless Mike Johnson allows for a vote on ACA subsidies before year’s end.
The clock is ticking, and every day we wait is another day of uncertainty for millions of Americans who don’t know if they will have health care coverage at the end of the month.
That’s why we need everyone to call their Representative right now to demand the House votes on and passes this clean three-year extension of the ACA subsidies without delay.
Dial 240-902-7773 now or text ACA to 30403 to be connected with your Representative now.
For months, working families who rely on ACA subsidies have been terrified by the prospect of skyrocketing health care costs if Congress fails to act.
From cancer patients having to forego chemotherapy treatments, to expectant mothers worried about paying out-of-pocket for labor and delivery, to diabetic patients wondering how they’ll afford their insulin — working families can’t wait.
We need a vote TODAY.
Dial 240-902-7773 now or text ACA to 30403 to tell your Representative to extend ACA subsidies today.
In solidarity,
Working Families Party
