Description

The House passed a GOP health care bill without extending ACA subsidies, fully aware those credits expire December 31. With no replacement plan in place, millions are now staring down higher premiums and lost coverage. Republicans moved forward with a health care vote while allowing ACA subsidies to expire at year’s end. Years of promises to repeal and replace the ACA produced nothing but “concepts of a plan,” leaving families exposed to sudden cost spikes. This wasn’t an accident — lawmakers knew exactly what would happen and voted anyway. The fallout is clear: higher premiums, fewer insured Americans, and disproportionate harm to working-class and Black communities. 🔥The House passed a GOP health care bill that does not extend ACA subsidies, which expire December 31. 🔥Republicans offered no replacement plan, despite years of promises to repeal and replace the ACA. 🔥Millions of Americans now face premium hikes and potential loss of coverage. 🔥Disabled people, Black and brown communities, and working-class families are hit first. 🔥Lawmakers knew the consequences — and voted anyway. #ACA #ACASubsidies #Healthcare #CoverageCollapse #HealthCareCuts #BlackAmerica #WorkingClass Follow for the latest videos from #RolandMartinUnfiltered & Black Star Network.

After all her press releases and interviews, MTG didn't sign onto the discharge petition. Believe what people do, not what they say.

Sorry but unfortunately people are getting what they voted for out of racism. Unfortunately others innocent people will be hurt.😪

At this point the Republicans should just resign or just get the hell out the way and let the Dems once again FIX THEIR MESS!!!

There goes my insurance. There’s no way that I can afford an additional $500.00 out of my paycheck for health insurance.

No way they can spin this now. Republicans own the price hikes 100%. Especially Johnson, who straight up LIED when he said he would let it come to vote if Dems ended the shutdown. I hope they get absolutely mollywhopped in the midterms.
