With open enrollment underway and premiums set to skyrocket, I met with health care advocates in Wilmington to discuss the impacts they're seeing in our state. We must act to end this health care crisis, reform our insurance system, and lower costs. Delawareans can't wait.

This morning, I heard from Reverend Fleshman what skyrocketing premiums mean for our communities   These price hikes leave people with few options, and none of them are good— we need this administration to come to the table and take action to make care affordable for ALL of us.

After kicking millions of Americans off their insurance, Republicans are refusing to take action to prevent outrageous price hikes like this for millions more. They're making our communities sicker and poorer, and they don't even seem to care.
Delaware: your health care bill could more than double next year. screenshot displaying a $717.92 premium for 2025 Orange arrow directing attention downward to a screenshot displaying a $3,255.38 monthly premium for 2026 If Republicans take away health care tax credits, a similar plan will cost thousands more.

When open enrollment begins tomorrow, a 61-year-old in Georgetown will see a premium that’s *446% higher* than it was last year - $1,192.45 per month. With everyday costs already high, this is simply unaffordable. We cannot let this stand.

This administration let nearly 100 million pounds of food go to waste rather than deliver it to food banks. It’s like they WANT millions of Americans to go hungry.

Over 40 million Americans will lose food assistance in the coming days due to Republicans' government shutdown. The Trump administration has refused to release funding set aside to keep food assistance programs running during emergencies.

Countless farmers in Delaware and across the country are suffering the consequences of this administration's recklessness. They don't need fake sympathy from a man worth half a billion dollars. They need an administration focused on putting them first.

Just this year, Republicans… -Cut funding for SNAP, and now are trying to use hungry families as political leverage -Cut funding for affordable health care, and now are trying to use higher premiums as political leverage They're playing politics with people's lives.
Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govOct 23(source)
They may not act like it, but even Republicans know we have to take on skyrocketing health care costs.   To prove it, @mcbride.house.gov and I got together to connect Republicans with their own words about this crisis.   It's time for them to put their money where their mouths are.
