If you get health care through your employer, your premiums are going up by an average of 26% no matter what.
Why? Because insurers had to set rates under the assumption Congress won't extend the ACA tax credits, destabilizing the whole market.
All thanks to Republican inaction.

Trump and Republicans want to hand over another $900 billion to Secretary of War Crimes Pete Hegseth. That's more than twice enough to extend the ACA tax credits for ten years and keep health care affordable for millions of Americans.

Army vet George Retes Jr. was trying to get to work on July 10 at Glass House during an ICE raid. He was handcuffed and jailed for 3 days without explanation. After he wrote about his arrest, DHS accused him of assault, which he called a baffling accusation.

The business of caring for older Americans is in a deepening crisis
Government funding cuts, caregiver shortages and immigration limits are adding new strains to an industry that’s already hard-pressed to meet demand.
