If Congress doesn't extend the ACA tax credits, more labor & delivery units will close. More rural hospitals will close. Moms and babies will pay the price.

We must stop the #HealthcareHeist.

While billionaires are buying yachts, families like Jenny's are worrying about how they'll pay for their kids to see a doctor.

Today, Iowa's lawmakers will show who they fight for: billionaire donors or working families.

Our representatives should vote for Iowans, not billionaires | Opinion
The four Iowans in the U.S. House so far have showed little concern about soaring premiums for their constituents, writes Jenny Turner.

Iowa's GOP representatives voted to gut your healthcare so that health insurance CEOs and big Pharma can get a giant tax cut.

Luckily, they can start fixing their mistake today.

Step 1: extend the ACA credits

Due to Congress’ failure to extend the enhanced premium tax credits, millions of Americans like Tori, Charlie, Sydney and Sara are facing skyrocketing premiums and difficult decisions about how they'll be able to afford essential health care.

Congress must take action TODAY to stop the #HealthcareHeist and vote to extend the enhanced premium tax credits that make health care affordable for Americans across the country.

Republicans cut over $1 trillion from healthcare to give health insurance execs and Big Pharma giant tax cuts.

But the GOP can choose to fight for working families instead of billionaires anytime.

Step 1: Extend the ACA tax credits TODAY.

Republicans cut over $1 trillion from healthcare to give their billionaire donors a giant tax cut.

The result? Higher costs, worse care.

Luckily, they've got a chance to start fixing that mistake.

Urge your GOP reps to vote YES on a 3-year extension today!

Republicans are talking a big game about affordability lately, but talk is cheap, and healthcare isn't.

And that's because the GOP committed a healthcare heist. But we're not standing for it.

It's too late to stop much of the damage from Republicans' disastrous choice to let ACA costs double or even triple, but Congress has one last chance to stem the bleeding.

Call your House Reps. and tell them to vote YES on a 3-year ACA tax credit extension.

It's 2026, and healthcare costs for over 22 million people have officially gone through the roof - all thanks to Republicans.

It's not fair, it's not right, and we're not going to stand for it.

Republicans are talking a big game when it comes to "affordability" lately, but they just blew their biggest chance to actually do something about it.

Thanks to the Senate GOP, monthly healthcare bills will double or even triple for millions of people on January 1st.

Alaska lawmakers talk a lot about supporting small business owners.

But it's time to put their money where their mouth is.

Congress must extend ACA tax credits THIS WEEK to stop healthcare costs from skyrocketing on Jan 1.

A few weeks ago, Iowans visited Sen. Ernst's office to plead with her to stop the #healthcareheist.

This summer, Sen. Ernst voted to gut Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act to give billionaires over $1 trillion in tax cuts.

That means higher bills and coverage losses for working Iowans.

Republicans still have a chance to fix the healthcare crisis they created when they passed their big, ugly tax law. But time is running out.

They're paying lip service to affordability while they dither and delay, but Americans can't wait.

It's time to extend the ACA tax credits now.

Republican healthcare cuts will devastate Iowa soon.

💸 Avg. premiums will nearly TRIPLE next year
🩺 10,000 Iowans won't be able to afford coverage
🏥 18 hospitals are at risk of closing

The worst part? It's all preventable misery.
December 4, 2025 at 10:09 PM
Republicans have a chance, right now, right in front of them, to do something about the affordability crisis and show hardworking Americans that they're fighting for them.

But they're not doing it because they're too busy fighting for their billionaire donors instead.
December 3, 2025 at 10:15 PM
Extending ACA tax credits would:

💵 Stop monthly healthcare costs from doubling or even TRIPLING for 22 million people on Jan. 1
🩺 Make sure folks can still see a doctor without going into debt
📈 Save jobs in communities that need them - especially rural ones.

So why aren't Republicans doing it?
December 3, 2025 at 10:15 PM
Republicans are talking about "affordability" a lot more lately. But without action to give Americans some relief from skyrocketing bills, that's just a word.

Republicans could act TODAY to cut costs for working families, boost the economy, and improve public health. So far, they're doing nothing.

We visited Capitol Hill with Lauren, a small business owner, proud Pennsylvanian, and ACA recipient.

Lauren pleaded with her GOP reps to help hardworking Americans like her, and extend ACA tax credits that help her afford healthcare.

They claimed to care. But talk is cheap, and healthcare isn't.
