Because of Trump and Congressional Republicans’ refusal to extend ACA tax credits, Pennsylvanians are seeing their health care costs more than double!

In 2025, a family of four in Pennsylvania making $130,000 a year pays around $920 per month for their health care coverage on the ACA Marketplace. In 2026, the same family will begin paying around $1,860 per month. That’s a $940 monthly spike or an extra $11,200 annually!

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialNov 7(source)

From utility bills to grocery prices to health care costs — across the board, life is getting more expensive for everyday Americans. And Trump’s message is “I don’t want to hear about affordability.”

Trump: "I don't want to hear about the affordability, because right now we're much less. If you look at energy, we're getting close to $2 a gallon gasoline."

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialNov 6(source)

This is disgusting. If the Trump administration WANTED to fully fund November SNAP benefits, they could and would.

ACA tax credits are a critical lifeline to help small business owners and employees afford their health care. That’s why I & my House Democratic colleagues are fighting to extend and protect these credits and stop the shutdown of health care for millions. (2/2)

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialNov 6(source)

As one SE Pennsylvania small business owner said: “I have [employees] that are looking at having health insurance now going up to be over $1,000…. That is absolutely insane.” (1/2)

PA small businesses may lose coverage if ACA tax credits expire

Unless Congress acts, enhanced Affordable Care Act premium tax credits will expire at year’s end, leaving small businesses in Pennsylvania and across the country bracing for higher health care costs.

It’s been an honor to work alongside Nancy Pelosi, a tenacious and steadfast fighter who never backed down and always put working Americans first. Thank you, Madame Speaker, for everything.

Democrats are ready and have been waiting to get to work to end this shutdown of critical federal services AND stop the shutdown of health care for millions of Americans. When will the GOP join us?

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialNov 6(source)

I applaud the Shapiro-Davis administration’s work to protect vulnerable Pennsylvanians who rely on LIHEAP.

HOME HEATING | Companies agree not to turn off heat amid LIHEAP uncertainty, governor says

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro says utility companies in the state have agreed not to turn off heat or electricity in November for LIHEAP-eligible Pennsylvanians affected by the government shutdown.

Trump promised to lower prices on “day one.” So far, he’s given huge tax cuts to billionaires, RAISED prices for Americans with his tariff-taxes, sent a $40 billion bailout to Argentina, and renovated a bathroom. But sure, he'll focus on affordability next year…

It's far past time for the House GOP to get back to voting session after 47 days and end the twin shutdowns of the government and of health care for 24 million Americans. (2/2)

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialNov 5(source)

Republicans control the White House, the House, and the Senate. And because of their inaction and incompetence, we are in the longest shutdown in US history. America deserves better than this. (1/2)

Republicans control the White House. Republicans control the House. Republicans control the Senate. This is their shutdown.

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialNov 5(source)

Last night’s results show it’s time to put down the ballroom plans and pick UP the phone. Tell the USDA to FULLY fund November’s SNAP benefits - now. Then Mr. Art of the Deal should call House & Senate Democratic leaders to meet with him and NEGOTIATE an end to this shutdown.

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialNov 4(source)

Even if the Trump administration follows court orders and uses the SNAP contingency fund- it's like putting 5 miles' worth of gas in your tank when you need to make a 100-mile trip from Philly to Harrisburg. It's only a temporary patch that lets you get to the next gas station.

'Hunger is going on': High-ranking Dems from Philly call for immediate funding of SNAP benefits

A group of high-power Democrats from the area gathered at a food pantry in West Philadelphia to call for immediate funding of SNAP benefits.

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialNov 4(source)

As I said at yesterday’s press conference- Speaker Johnson needs to reconvene the House after 46 days away and let us get back to work!

“My colleagues and I stand here to send a message that we need to reconvene the House and get back so we can get this stuff done,” said U.S. Rep. Dwight Evans at Bebashi - Transition to Hope’s on-site food pantry.

Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialNov 4(source)

Hours before this, Trump threatened to keep withholding SNAP benefits illegally. Trump can FULLY release SNAP funds right now - millions of hungry children, seniors, veterans, and disabled Americans can't wait as his administration continues to play these political games.

Q: Trump wrote that SNAP benefits will only be given when Democrats reopen the government. As written, how would that not violate the court order? LEAVITT: I've now answered this question several times. We are complying with the court's order
