High Deductible plans, with HSA deposits, are useless if the patient can't afford their deductible.
Which is the ultimate problem with no CSR, ACA plans.

This is a massive flip: In 2021, the Republican incumbent won re-election by more than 60 points. Last night, Higgins won by 19 points.

It's been almost three weeks now and they still haven't released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

Yes. We must extend the ACA tax credits so that over 20 million Americans don't see a doubling in their health premiums, on average. But we must do more. We cannot remain the only major country not to guarantee health care for all as a human right.
We must pass Medicare for All.

The stories of pregnant women in ICE detention — one shackled while miscarrying, another placed in solitary confinement with a high-risk pregnancy — are not one offs.
They're a clear pattern of neglect where ICE ignores its own rules. This cruelty must end.
