ACA marketplace plans w/ $0 premiums help ppl get & stay covered. Recent Republican proposals would require minimum premiums or fail to extend premium tax credit enhancements based on the false claim that ppl who don’t use medical care are “phantom enrollees.” 🧵https://tinyurl.com/4uc68zbf
People With Low Incomes May Lose $0 Premium Plans — a Lifeline — Unless Congress Acts
Without congressional action, PTC enhancements will expire at the end of 2025. This will cause millions —many of these lowest-income enrollees especially — to become uninsured, or to face impossible c...

Some recent Republican responses to the marketplace premium tax credit issue would shift more people to bronze plans with Health Savings Accounts as an alternative to silver plans with PTC enhancements and cost sharing reductions. So how do these plans stack up in real terms?

Enhanced Premium Tax Credits protect 20M+ people from medical bills that drain savings & wreck credit. Congress had the chance to act—instead, they chose cuts.

House Republicans wanted the Senate to fix their megabill.
Instead, GOP senators made steeper cuts to Medicaid, hastened cuts to wind and solar energy tax credits and added hundreds of billions of dollars more to the deficit.

Yesterday @govlaurakelly.bsky.social vetoed a line in the budget that would have required parents on Medicaid to re-certify their eligibility each month instead of each year, causing extra cost to the state and loss of health care for Kansans. Thank you Gov. Kelly! #ksleg #Medicaid #SaveMedicaid

Kansans can’t afford to have their health care cut. But leaders in Congress are considering rushed and sloppy cuts to Medicaid that will take health care away from millions of people in America. Protect Kansas seniors, children, and people with disabilities by saying NO to federal cuts to Medicaid.

A few weeks ago we posted a video on TikTok about the proposed federal cuts to Medicaid. The response was overwhelming with people commenting about how Medicaid cuts would impact them, so here is part 1 of a series on how Medicaid cuts will affect real people:

Millions of #Medicaid enrollees could be harmed by Republicans’ plan to cut Medicaid to fund tax breaks for the wealthy. These cuts could reduce coverage, raise costs, and strain local economies. They are ill-advised and should be rejected. www.cbpp.org/research/hea...

Just a few moments ago the #ksleg House voted on Medicaid expansion through an amendment from Rep. Suzanne Wikle. The vote failed to pass 37-84.
Let's be clear: this was a yes/no vote on Medicaid expansion. If your legislator didn't support it, we encourage you to ask them why. #ExpandKanCare
