Program for Public ConsultationFebruary 2026

As you may know, a law was passed in 2021 which temporarily increased subsidies for health insurance in the ACA marketplace. Recently, those increased subsidies were ended, thus raising the healthcare costs (premiums and deductibles) for households on ACA insurance.Here is a proposal: Renew the increased subsidies for ACA health insurance, so that low- and middle-income households on ACA will not have a major increase in health insurance costs.

Program for Public ConsultationJuly 2024

Make permanent the law which has: increased financial aid for lower- and middle-income households to reduce the amount that they pay for health insurance premiums and deductibles, and expanded financial aid for health insurance to include individuals making over $60,000 and families of four making over $125,000.
