It’s appalling that the Trump administration fought a court order to distribute these funds - needlessly keeping families in limbo for a week.
I’m grateful for the hard work of NH DHHS staff who are getting these benefits out to Granite Staters as swiftly as possible.

Small business owners and employees account for nearly half of people that get health insurance through the Affordable Care Act Marketplace.
Without extending the ACA enhanced premium tax credits, premiums have massively increased. This is money that families and small businesses do not have.

At a time that health care and cost-of-living is way too high for everyday families, Congress must extend the ACA enhanced premium tax credits to keep health insurance costs lower.
Not doing so would be a huge step backwards on the delivery and access of health care in NH communities.
