We hear a lot of speeches but do not see any real attempt to negotiate solutions. It is time for Congress make addressing the affordability problem its number one priority. (3/3)
In the last year, electricity is up 5.1 percent, the cost of meat, fish, poultry and eggs is up 5.2 percent, and housing is up 3.6 percent. Now, families are confronting unaffordable health insurance premiums because the Republican Congress refuses to do anything to help. (2/3)
The SCORE Act “is not reform, it’s regression,” says Meghann Burke, Exec. Director of @nwslplayers.bsky.social. “We need athletes, men and women alike… to have a real seat at the table in shaping the future of college sports."
I joined @merkley.senate.gov during his marathon floor speech to talk about how tariffs have put soybean growers on their heels. Instead of dealing with the fact that their own constituents are getting run over, our colleagues are ignoring that the President is abusing these powers.
The President is abusing his power on tariffs. It's such an important constitutional authority given to Congress. The President should not have authority to usher in economic impact in this dramatic way.
The SCORE Act is not what we think it is. It's not the solution for the athlete. There's a lot of people scoring. Two big divisions and their commissioners, they're scoring. The NCAA, they're scoring. Apparently private equity is scoring. But who's not scoring is the athletes.
Right now, Congress needs to act. Families who buy health coverage on ACA exchanges are threatened by large increases in health insurance premiums – including 1 in 13 Jefferson County residents.
Families are still reeling from sky-high inflation on everyday expenses like electricity, housing, and groceries. Congress must act immediately to extend the expiring Affordable Care Act tax credits or healthcare will be added to their list of financial burdens. (3/3)
They face an impossible choice: Pay hundreds or even thousands of dollars more next year for the exact same plan, downgrade their coverage, or forego health insurance altogether. (2/3)
The window-shopping period for purchasing health insurance on Washington Healthplanfinder is beginning and unfortunately Washingtonians are going to see skyrocketing premiums statewide. (1/3)
Students will face much higher costs if enhanced premium tax credits aren’t extended -- a 26-year-old part-time student in Eastern WA would see his health insurance premiums quadruple.
We've made some big investments to grow the middle class, like in the CHIPS & Science Act. But now we have a president who isn't embracing that policy -- he's making things more expensive with tariffs, and that’s making it harder to grow the middle class.
