As Pennie open enrollment begins today, hundreds of thousands of Pennsylvanians are seeing their premiums skyrocket or getting priced out of health care coverage altogether. House Democrats want to extend ACA tax credits to STOP this shutdown of health care. Why don't most House Republicans?

THE REPUBLICAN HEALTH CARE CRISIS IS RAISING ANNUAL HEALTH INSURANCE PREMIUMS BY $28,680 FOR A 60 YEAR OLD COUPLE MAKING $82,000 A YEAR IN PENNSYLVANIA.

If the Trump administration cruelly and illegally chooses to withhold SNAP payments tomorrow, 2 million Pennsylvanians won’t receive the food assistance they’re counting on. I applaud Governor Shapiro’s swift actions to help Pennsylvanians in need at this time.

2 million Pennsylvanians are hours away from losing their SNAP benefits. And President Trump is showing off his fancy new bathroom??

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialOct 31(source)

If the Trump administration wanted to- it could send out November SNAP benefits. Congress has put BILLIONS of dollars in a SNAP contingency fund for exactly this situation. So Secretary Rollins is correct here!

So, Trump decided that a $40 billion bailout to his right-wing foreign ally was “essential,” but feeding 42 million Americans- including 16 million children, 8 million seniors, and 1.2 million veterans isn’t. Is this what "America First" looks like in practice?

Trump called a $40 billion foreign bailout “essential” but is illegally choosing not to use billions in SNAP contingency funds to feed hungry Americans

“I’m scared,” Deardra, a Philly child care provider & @afscme.bsky.social member, told me. Deardra is one of the millions of Americans who rely on the ACA tax credits to afford their health care. Stories like hers are exactly why I am fighting to protect these tax credits.

Republicans want to starve children to pressure Democrats into gutting healthcare. How do we know? Mike Johnson just admitted it.

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialOct 30(source)

Republicans weaponizing hunger: Trump refuses to use billions of dollars in the SNAP contingency fund, Senate Republicans block a bill to fund SNAP & WIC, and the House can’t even pass a bill to fund SNAP because it’s Day 41 of Speaker Johnson keeping us out of voting session. #GOPShutdown

BREAKING: Democrats just tried to pass a standalone bill to fund WIC & SNAP to make sure families don't go hungry during the Republican shutdown. Republicans BLOCKED it. So Trump won't use emergency funds to keep SNAP running, and Republicans won't let any bills pass. Shameful.

USDA Quietly Deletes Its Contingency Plan for Funding SNAP

The 55-page “lapse of funding” document for USDA is no longer available online.

“Funds are available for [SNAP] program operations even in the event of a government shutdown"- This was DIRECTLY from Trump's USDA- but they deleted it from the website. Trump isn't trying to “mitigate harm.” He's illegally choosing not to pay November SNAP benefits & covering it up!

Q: In the last Trump shutdown, he made sure SNAP benefits went out. Why do you think he shouldn't do that this time? MIKE JOHNSON: The president has done exactly what he did in the first term, and that is bend over backward to make sure we mitigate the harm. The money doesn't exist to do it.

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialOct 29(source)

It’s a hollow gesture to introduce bills like this UNLESS it’s coupled with calling for Speaker Johnson to end House Republicans’ 40-day paid vacation and open the House again for votes. #GOPShutdown

More details on Trump canceling 94 million pounds of aid for food banks earlier this year:

Trump Canceled 94 Million Pounds of Food Aid. Here’s What Never Arrived.

ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detail the millions of pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the administration’s cut...

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialOct 29(source)

Trump already canceled 94 million pounds of aid for food banks AND cut $186 billion in SNAP funding in his Big Ugly law. Now he refuses to fund Nov. SNAP benefits for 42 million Americans. Even before the shutdown, feeding hungry families wasn't a priority for Trump.

Trump’s HUGE to do list:
Cut $186 billion from SNAP (checked)
Cancel 94 million pounds of aid for food banks (checked)
Use billions in contingency funds to keep benefits going (crossed out in red ink)
Let 42 million Americans go hungry (checked)

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialOct 29(source)

Millions of Americans are about to see their premiums skyrocket, millions more are on the brink of hunger, our air traffic controllers & other federal workers just missed their paychecks... and House Republicans are on day 40 of their vacation. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

House Republicans have been on vacation for 40 days

BS. With open enrollment starting this week, this is a HUGE issue. Here’s the truth directly from Pennie: “If EPTCs are allowed to expire this year…when taking 2026 premium increases into account, the actual cost increase for enrollees will be 102% on average.”

Map of every county in Pennsylvania with the net premium percent change for Pennie 2026 Open Enrollment- without federal action to extend the ACA tax credits. Philadelphia county is highlighted where rates will raise an estimated 116%

Q: Unless ACA subsidies are extended, the average plan will increase by somewhere around 115% DR OZ: Where'd you get that number? Q: Kaiser Family Foundation OZ: They retracted that. Here's the truth. The average American who's on ACA is gonna pay $13 more than this year. That's not a big issue

“If my premiums go up any further, and I can afford neither the premiums nor my medication, it will affect my ability to work, to care for my husband, and to care for myself,” a North Philly resident told my office. This is exactly why I’m fighting to protect the ACA tax credits.

I can barely afford my current premiums, but I really can't afford to go without health insurance. I take specialty medication for Rheumatoid Arthritis that I cannot physically function without.
If my premiums go up any further, and I can afford neither the premiums nor my medication, it will affect my ability to work, to care for my husband, and to care for myself.
