Dr. Paul Offit: I don’t trust this administration. I think their goal is to make vaccines less available, less affordable, and more feared because RFK Jr. is waging a war on vaccines. Or, said another way: waging a war against America’s children.

Dr. Paul Offit on new vaccine guidelines for children: “A choice not to get a Covid vaccine is a very real choice to get Covid, which can be serious.”

Jeffries: Republicans apparently have no interest in protecting the health care of every-day Americans. They’d rather protect the interests of big oil and their billionaire donors, which is why they enacted massive tax breaks in their One Big Ugly Bill.

For millions of Americans, affordable health care coverage is the difference between life and death.

Johana Scott, a cancer patient who relies on the ACA to afford her health care coverage, told MS NOW reporters that “she literally may not be alive by the time [an] agreement is worked out.”

No one can afford to lose their health care.

The needs of ordinary people and families, not corporations or the wealthy, should drive health care policy making in America.

Over 70 MILLION Americans count on Medicaid. It’s the backbone of health care access in America.

Dan Pfeiffer: Health care affordability is on the agenda. It was not even being talked about before. ... Jeffries has played his cards very, very well and put the democrats in a position of maximum leverage for next year.

Speaker Johnson blocking the vote on the ACA tax credits guaranteed that millions of people will lose health care coverage, hitting rural hospitals the hardest.

“What we see under this Trump administration is the biggest threat to rural health care in my lifetime,” says KY Gov Andy Beshear.
December 19, 2025 at 6:02 PM
Speaker Johnson has now officially avoided the ACA vote.

“All they’ve done is reinforce the fact that their sole objective is… jamming their extreme right-wing ideology down the throats of the American people, while doing nothing at all to make life better for the American people” says Jeffries.

FOX News Host: A lot of what [Trump] said is just mathematically impossible. … If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to $0. If you cut it by 4-, 5-, 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you to take their product.

Democratic Whip, Rep. Catherine Clark: Thanks to the unity of this caucus, the leadership of Hakeem Jeffries, and the resolve of the American people, Democrats have secured a vote on extending the ACA tax credits.
December 18, 2025 at 3:58 PM
Jeffries: The overwhelming majority of the American people support the Democratic position, which is to make sure that we are driving down health care costs, in part by ensuring that we are extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits.
December 18, 2025 at 2:50 PM
Jeffries: Time has run out. Republicans have had all year to deal with this issue, and have chosen not to do it…
December 18, 2025 at 2:08 PM
McGovern: [Republicans] have spent an entire year screwing over the people that they represent. ... The American people are begging for action on affordability. They are begging for action to lower the costs of health care. What more do they need to do to get Republicans to take action?
