11:37Now PlayingObamacare Subsidies Remain in Question as House Returns for Shutdown Vote
YouTube Description
as posted by the channelRepublican Representative from Florida Byron Donalds says that he is a yes vote on the deal to end the government shutdown, which is expected to reach the House floor Wednesday. Donalds says that he is not in support of a vote on expiring Obamacare subsidies and that a new system is necessary to bring costs down.
Expiring Obamacare subsidies face an uphill battle for renewal in the coming weeks as Democrats race against the clock to try to find enough Republicans willing to back an extension.
Millions of Americans facing a sharp spike in premiums must soon decide whether to pay the higher bills or forgo health care, as insurance companies brace for a potentially large dent in revenue.
While some Senate GOP moderates say they would like to see the subsidies extended at least temporarily with some additional guardrails, leading health care policy voices in the party — long skeptical of the underlying Obamacare law itself — have sought to steer conversation away from the enhanced premium tax credits in favor of more sweeping alternative proposals that could reshape US health insurance markets.
Lawmakers are running short on time. The subsidies expire at the end of the year.
“We start from the premise that Obamacare is a disaster and unaffordable, unsustainable, and so how do we provide access to coverage that is meaningful, but is sustainable?” Senator John Cornyn told reporters Monday. “There are many, many ideas and no conclusions.”
