MAGAt Moses Mikey: Republicans will provide affordable healthcare by letting the ACA subsidies expire [View all]

House Republicans unveiled details of their health care proposal on Friday ahead of a looming expiration of enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies.

The bill includes several measures that have broad support among Republicans, including reinstating cost-sharing reductions and allowing small businesses to buy health insurance as a group. But it notably would not extend enhanced ACA subsidies, which are set to expire in just a few weeks.

The expiration of those subsidies is expected to cause premiums to more than double on average for roughly 22 million Americans.

“While Democrats demand that taxpayers write bigger checks to insurance companies to hide the cost of their failed law, House Republicans are tackling the real drivers of health care costs to provide affordable care, increase access and choice, and restore integrity to our nation’s health care system for all Americans,” House Speaker Mike Johnson said in a statement.
