Hi John,
On Nov. 1, Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplaces in most states will begin to open for enrollment for the coming year.
Unless Congress acts, more than 90% of people enrolled in ACA health care plans will see their out-of-pocket premiums jump by more than 75% on average. And millions could lose coverage altogether when a key tax credit drops at the end of the year.
Rising costs for Affordable Care Act health care plans ultimately will result in higher health care costs for everyone—including those who get their health insurance through their jobs. The last thing families need is even higher health care bills at a time when we’re also dealing with the rising costs of food, housing, electricity, gas and other essentials.
Congress must act immediately. Please make a call to tell your senators and representative to stop the health care price spike NOW! Call 855-493-4407.
Across the country, headlines are warning of double-digit increases in health care costs. But national Republican leaders refuse to acknowledge that they must address this tidal wave of rising health insurance prices.
President Trump, Senate Majority Leader John Thune and House Speaker Mike Johnson are refusing to commit to preserving these tax credits for working people. They control every branch of government—and they need to fix this crisis.
We cannot stand by as the leaders who control Congress spike health care costs so high that millions will lose their insurance. Make a call here.
Thank you for taking action today.
