YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWatch Joe and Kailey LIVE every day on YouTube().
Speaker Mike Johnson will block a push by moderate House Republicans for a vote on renewing expiring Obamacare subsidies, quashing a last-ditch effort to head off a spike in insurance premiums for more than 20 million Americans.
The Republican speaker’s decision guarantees enhanced Affordable Care Act premium credits expire at the end of the year. Democrats have made clear the congressional Republicans’ refusal to extend the subsidies will figure prominently in a midterm congressional campaign focusing on the high cost of living.
