“This year, it’s $295 per month.”
“And if the [ACA] subsidies go away Jan. 1, the price will be $1,216 per month, a 312% increase.”
By killing ACA tax credits, Republicans are driving up the health care costs of hardworking Missouri families.

Day after day, the Fox-News-host-turned-Defense-Secretary undermines our national security & dishonors our nation.
These reports are deeply disturbing, and Congress should fully investigate him and others for potential war crimes.
America is better than this.

On World AIDS Day, we remember the friends and loved ones lost to HIV/AIDS.
Let us honor their memory by renewing our commitment to ending the stigma, advancing innovative treatments, and finding a cure.
70 years ago today, Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give up her seat on a city bus in Montgomery, Alabama.
As we remember this key moment in the Civil Rights Movement, may we honor her courage by recommitting to advancing equality and justice for ALL Americans.
We have so much to be grateful for in the United States of America.
Today, I’m wishing everyone in #MO05 and across the country a wonderful Thanksgiving with family and friends.
The president said that he would lower costs for hardworking families on Day One.
Instead, his tariff taxes are driving up prices on groceries and other everyday essentials.
For 10 months, Republicans in Congress have sat back and allowed this administration to move forward with countless unethical, unconstitutional, and deeply harmful actions without saying a word.
But when it comes to helping American families afford health care, they decide to push back.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social are fighting to extend Affordable Care Act tax credits that help working-class families afford quality health care.

Republicans could have extended ACA tax credits earlier this year—but they chose to extend tax breaks for billionaires and giant corporations instead.
Now, working-class families are seeing their health care costs skyrocket.
We saw this same story during the president’s first term.
