Again, not one honest democrat in the entire country.

BO Care was supposed to make healthcare affordable. It was going to save the average American family $2500. Remember that? Rather than own it, the rats are now trying to stall the inevitable so that they don't have to taking a beating over the head when premiums go up right before the election.

Rats used Covid as an excuse to give away free healthcare paid by anyone with a heartbeat who actually pays taxes. Now they want to continue that scam because they think it will hurt them politically come November.

Spending/bribery based on political opportunities. What a way to govern, you fucking rats.

Toward the bottom it says that Schumer is negotiating with Manchin to craft a smaller spending bill. We are in the middle of inflationary spending and about to go into a recession and the rats are still looking to put together a spending bill.

Nice math you fucking rats.

Centrist House Dems are raising pressure on party leaders to defuse an Obamacare timebomb soon.
The New Democrat Coalition is urging Schumer and Pelosi to revive a reconciliation bill with a key health program.
Democrats are at risk of setting off a premium hike just before the November midterms.

A large group of House Democrats are stepping up pressure on party leaders to revive their stalled economic agenda and avoid hitting voters with huge healthcare bills only weeks before the November midterms.

Fifty-seven members of the centrist New Democrat coalition led by Rep. Suzan DelBene of Washington signed a letter meant to highlight the steep health insurance premium increases that many people would face if a pandemic-era financial assistance program expires in December. The cohort included many Democratic lawmakers locked in tight re-election races this fall.

Under the stimulus law last year, Democrats bulked up federal subsidies to cut monthly premiums for millions of Americans purchasing individual health insurance plans under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The move led to many lower-income Americans paying little or nothing for health coverage. Many middle-class families qualified for generous federal assistance for the first time.

If Democrats fail to revive a reconciliation bill extending the enhanced subsidies past year's end, major price hikes often totaling hundreds of dollars will hit 13 million Americans during a punishing stretch of inflation. Three million people would also lose their health insurance, according to the Department of Health and Human Services.

"With prices rising broadly, our constituents cannot afford these increased health insurance costs," the group wrote in a letter to Schumer and Pelosi shared with Insider. "This cannot happen on our watch."


Signatories included DelBene; Rep. Cindy Axne of Iowa; Rep. Josh Gottheimer of New Jersey; Rep. Tom Malinowski of New Jersey; and Rep. Bill Foster of Indiana. NBC News first reported the letter.

Experts say Congress must act by midsummer to ensure states and private insurers have enough time to set up their enrollment periods, which can take months.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is negotiating with Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia to strike a deal on a smaller spending bill that may extend the healthcare program. Since Republicans are staunchly against strengthening the ACA, Democrats can only renew the initiative using their own votes in budget reconciliation.

    Yeah, the "centrist" dems want a massive spending bill to give away free health care. Leftards lie and love to be lied to.
