Today, my Republican colleagues voted against preventing health care costs from spiking for tens of millions of Americans.
There’s no mystery now about who is fighting to ensure health care is affordable for the American people.
My full statement: www.shaheen.senate.gov/news/press/s...
Yesterday @markwarner.bsky.social and I came together to highlight the disastrous consequences of inaction on the ACA tax credits.
We heard from folks who are already feeling the pain of skyrocketing premiums.
This crisis is preventable if Republicans join us to extend the tax credits.
If you think you won't be impacted by the expiration of the ACA enhanced premium tax credits, think again.
4 million newly uninsured Americans will impact the entire health care system, raising costs for everyone and making it harder for health care providers to treat you.
I’m headed to the Senate floor to call on my Republican colleagues to join Democrats in voting to extend the ACA tax credits families rely on to afford health care.
Millions are counting on Congress to come together and get this done. Tune in. ⬇️

"We should not let the executive branch and the president get us into another war that the American people don't know about [and] haven't supported."

On the Senate floor today, Republicans will face a very simple choice: Will you vote to extend the ACA tax credits or will you allow millions of Americans to lose coverage?
Americans are watching—and if this vote fails they'll know who allowed their health care costs to skyrocket.
"In the United States of America, access to affordable health care should not prevent anyone from starting a business, changing careers or being able to live the life of their choosing."
The ACA tax credits disproportionately benefit our small businesses. Congress must act.
NOW: Joining my colleague @markwarner.bsky.social
to host a spotlight forum underscoring the urgent need for Congress to extend the soon-expiring ACA tax credits that allow tens of millions of Americans to afford health insurance.

I was proud to lead the promotion ceremony for our excellent 2025 Defense Legislative Fellow.
Congrats on your promotion, Justin! Thank you for being a stellar member of our team this past year and for your continued service to our nation - best of luck on your next mission.
There will be catastrophic consequences if Republicans don't join us to extend the ACA tax credits.
This is not about achieving a political victory for one party or the other – it's about coming together to act in the best interest of the American people.
When workers have affordable health insurance, they get healthy and stay healthy which benefits their communities and our economy.
4 million Americans are expected to lose coverage if Republicans allow the ACA tax credits to expire and that shock will be felt by everyone.
Congress must extend the ACA tax credits that are a lifeline for millions of families.
That’s exactly what the Democratic plan would do by providing the certainty of these tax credits for another 3 years. I urge my Republican colleagues to join us to advance this proposal.
Support for the ACA tax credits has reached an all-time high of 57%, including 63% among independents.
There’s still time to find a solution and prevent premiums from skyrocketing. My Republican colleagues should heed this Gallup poll and join with us to extend the tax credits.
Obamacare more popular with Americans than ever, poll finds
www.semafor.com/article/12/0...
Tens of millions of Americans are currently signing up for health insurance coverage through the ACA Marketplace.
They're facing staggering premium increases because Republicans in Congress and in the White House refuse to extend the vital ACA enhanced premium tax credits.
The 13th Amendment ended the evil of slavery in America, and its anniversary reminds us that the work of equality is never finished.
Today, we honor this milestone by recommitting ourselves to dignity, fairness and opportunity for all.
Whether you're a Republican or Democrat, the soaring cost of health care impacts everyone.
Republicans need to join us to extend the ACA tax credits that help bring down premium costs before it's too late. The President’s own pollsters have underscored the political urgency.
Time is running out to prevent price hikes that will make health care unaffordable for millions of people.
New polling shows that Americans will hold President Trump and Congressional Republicans accountable if they refuse to work with Democrats to find a path forward.
Our latest survey captures the views and experiences of Marketplace enrollees as they weigh their coverage options for 2026, without the enhanced ACA credits or other policy changes that the Senate could debate this month.
