Dear Friend,

Republicans in the U.S. House are putting forward a health care package
this week that is all tinsel, no tree.

[ [link removed] ]Quick signature: Tell Republicans, don’t be a Grinch! Extend the ACA
tax credits! *When you click, you’ll automatically sign on if we already
have your information.

What’s happening? The Republicans’ health care bill has a Grinch-sized
heart: two sizes too small for the real cost crisis families are facing
right now due to Trumpflation. Congress goes out of session for the rest
of 2025 starting at the end of the week, so there are just five days left
to extend cost-saving and life-saving tax credits that help over 20
million people access health care. [1]

The solution that Republican leaders in Congress proposed is like the
Grinch rummaging through the attic and re-gifting failed health care ideas
from years past. They’ve put a big bow on a package that doesn’t lower
costs or protect families. With the Republicans’ proposed bill, nearly 5
million people—including children and people with pre-existing
conditions—will lose their health care coverage altogether. [ [link removed] ]

[2]The only way for Republican leaders to address this health care crisis
of their making is for Congress to extend the ACA tax credits. Sign on
now!

Buried in the fine print of this House Republican health care package are
extremist anti-abortion policies. The Republican proposal ensures that tax
credit funding cannot go to any plans that cover abortion, effectively
banning abortion coverage in all ACA plans. [ [link removed] ] The Republicans’ health
care package does more harm than good, and it’s time for them to stop
these Grinch-style policies!

Dear Member of Congress,

With only a few legislative days before the end of the year, we urge you
to oppose any health care package that continues to raise costs or take
away coverage and to vote instead to pass a clean extension of the
Affordable Care Act (ACA) enhanced premium tax credits.

Health care costs in the U.S. were already high. Now, with nearly $1
trillion in cuts to health care over the summer and the ACA premium tax
credits on the line, a dire situation has escalated into a full-blown
crisis. Fifteen million people will already lose health care due to
Medicaid cuts passed earlier this year. If Congress does not renew the
ACA premium tax credits before they’re set to expire at the end of the
year, then health care costs will more than double for over 20 million
people, and nearly 5 million additional people will lose their health
coverage altogether.

When millions become uninsured, it will strain the entire health care
system, driving up costs across the board and forcing hundreds of
hospitals, maternity wards, and nursing homes to close. Research has
found that millions of Americans will collectively pay an estimated $23
billion more next year just to maintain the same level of coverage they
currently rely on. This harms the economy and families alike.

A clean extension of the ACA tax credits is the only way to protect
health care for the millions of people who obtain coverage through the
ACA Marketplace and to implement plans quickly enough to prevent gaps in
coverage and care. Please vote YES on a clean extension of the ACA tax
credits and bring some much-needed relief to families.
