While Americans are already facing an affordability crisis, Republicans in Congress are allowing health care costs to skyrocket for millions. The ACA Tax Credits will expire in mere days, but Congress can still act if Republicans come to the table. www.cbsnews.com/news/aca-sub...
We must keep millions of Americans from losing health care coverage in the coming months. It’s not too late for Republicans to join Democrats in extending the ACA tax credits that help Americans afford health care coverage. I know many of my colleagues across the aisle agree.
Health care centers across NH are facing a workforce shortage. I’m urging the Department of Education to add graduate nursing to its professional programs list because limiting pathways to education for those pursuing nursing is bad policy and insulting to the life-saving care nurses provide.
If the ACA tax credits expire, America's farmers—who are already facing an affordability crisis from the President's tariffs—will also face higher health care costs. Congress must come together to extend the tax credits to give farmers some real relief. www.npr.org/2025/12/08/n...
The Senate passed the annual bipartisan defense legislation, which includes measures I led to exempt public shipyards from hiring disruptions, limit the spread of PFAS in military communities, place checks on the Administration and more. www.shaheen.senate.gov/news/press/s...
Granite State hospitals are already struggling to get by and cuts to Medicaid included in President Trump's Big Betrayal Bill are making it even more challenging. That means higher health care costs and fewer options for Granite Staters.
With the ACA tax credits expiring in just weeks, we must keep working to find a solution that will help millions of Americans afford their health insurance premiums. I’m going to pursue every possibility to reduce health care costs for families.
Today marks 3 years since the historic Respect for Marriage Act was signed into law, enshrining long-overdue protections for same-sex and interracial couples. We must continue to uphold our nation's core freedoms, including the fundamental right to love who you love.
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.
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.
