This fight is far from over. Every American deserves access to the care they need without worrying about whether they can afford to pay the bill. I will continue fighting alongside my House Democratic colleagues to ensure they can.
Senate Republicans promised their Democratic colleagues a vote on extending the Affordable Care Act enhanced premium tax credits at some undetermined point in the future. Speaker Johnson refuses to commit to a similar vote in the House. For these reasons, I voted no.
Instead, the piecemeal package on the floor today kicks the can down the road until January for most federal government agencies and fails to prevent millions of Americans who purchase insurance through the ACA from seeing their premiums spike in January.
For 43 days, this government shutdown has taken a toll on millions of people who have missed paychecks, struggled with food insecurity with SNAP funding and more. At the same time, millions more face skyrocketing premiums that threaten their ability to get the health care they need next year.
The Senate funding bill just passed in the House, which funds the government without a permanent extension of the Affordable Care Act enhanced premium tax credits. Here’s why I voted no. 🧵
Today, we vote on a bill that forces a choice between our federal workforce and hungry families — or the millions who may lose access to health care if enhanced premium tax credits expire. Republicans forced us into this. I joined @wric.com to discuss why the fight for health care continues.
As veterans transition from active-duty to civilian life, we owe it to them to ease any burdens they face. In honor of #VeteransDay, I introduced the Student Veteran Work Study Modernization Act to tailor the VA Work Study Program to better meet the unique needs of student veterans.
Graphic. Background is photo of student veteran talking to school counselor. Text reads, “MCCLELLAN INTRODUCES BILL TO MODERNIZE WORK-STUDY PROGRAMS FOR STUDENT VETERANS: IMPROVING ACCESSIBILITY AND HELPING VETERANS TRANSITION BACK TO CIVILIAN LIFE.” Logo of Rep. McClellan is present.
From day one of the 119th Congress, I have stood with House Democrats ready to pass a bipartisan funding bill that meets the needs of the American people, lowers costs and addresses the health care crisis facing this country. The Senate proposal is not that bill. I will vote no.
USDA has the money to pay SNAP benefits in November. Two federal judges found USDA has the power to pay SNAP benefits during the shutdown, and one ordered them to do so. The Trump Administration plans to appeal because it wants a political win rather than to feed hungry Americans.
Image of Reuters article titled, “Trump administration must fully fund food aid benefits by Friday, US judge rules.” Photo of SNAP sign and logos of Reuters and Rep. McClellan are present.
President Trump and his Administration would rather waste taxpayer dollars on a ballroom than feed families and keep health care affordable for millions. This morning, I joined Sunrise on The Hill by @thehill.com to discuss Republicans’ inaction and skewed priorities during this shutdown.
