I’m hearing from RIers across our state about huge increases for their health insurance premiums. This week, I voted to extend the ACA credits & lower health care costs. Yet again, Republicans failed to show up for working Americans.

The American people should know who requested cushy treatment for Jeffrey Epstein’s co-conspirator & convicted child sex trafficker, Ghislaine Maxwell, and why. While she’s reportedly granted perks like ‘puppy privileges’ in ‘club Fed,’ I’m asking DOJ’s watchdog to investigate.

America’s health care costs are shooting up but Trump’s allies refuse to help lower them. Instead of providing immediate relief, Republicans blocked an extension of ACA tax credits, making health insurance less affordable & attainable & spiking prices for millions of Americans.

Trump talks a big game when it comes to American manufacturing. But that’s all it is – all talk, poor results. Trump’s tariffs are failing. We need to deliver real relief for American businesses & consumers.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govDec 11(source)
I’m for lower health care costs. My votes are for practical, people-first solutions to rein in costs. But today more Republicans voted to double premiums overnight, destabilize the health care marketplace, & impose steep price hikes on working Americans.

Senate rejects extension of health care subsidies as costs are set to rise for millions of Americans
The Senate has rejected legislation to extend Affordable Care Act tax credits, essentially guaranteeing that millions of Americans will see a steep rise in costs at the beginning of the year.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govDec 10(source)
BEWARE: Republicans saying they want to give you “more choices” for health insurance does nothing to lower your costs. Tomorrow, Republicans can either vote with Democrats to lower health insurance costs OR they can send premiums soaring for millions.

Donald Trump is trying to shut down the CFPB, an agency that has returned $21 billion to Americans who were cheated by big banks and giant corporations. I joined my fellow @banking.senate.gov to break down what it means for you. Trump is siding with the scammers. We’re fighting back.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govDec 10(source)
Trump's unaffordable tariffs are driving up prices & making life more expensive for working Americans. He dismisses cost of living concerns because he’s raking in billions of dollars as president & is detached from the reality of the grocery store & electric bills.

Grateful to Sen. Kim for sharing his family’s experience with Alzheimer’s – a devastating diagnosis too many Americans experience. Congress must work together to improve care, invest in a cure, & boost support for caregivers too.

Since my father’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis, I have asked myself the kinds of questions about caregiving that too many Americans are forced to ask. It shouldn’t be this hard.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govDec 9(source)
The clock is ticking as millions of Americans face higher health care bills starting next month. Democrats stand united with working families & are voting to lower health care costs. Republicans voted to take $1 trillion from Medicaid & block lower monthly premiums.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govDec 9(source)
The American people deserve to see the video of the Sept. 2nd strike ordered by Sec. Hegseth for themselves. Joined @cnn.com’s The Lead w/ @jaketapper.bsky.social to discuss my efforts to get answers, materials, & accountability.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govDec 8(source)
As ACA tax credit deadline approaches, Congress will take a key vote this week: Democrats support making health care more affordable for all. But if Republicans block the bill, it could rip coverage from millions & send premiums soaring.
