Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer announced that Democrats will force a vote next week to extend the enhanced Affordable Care Act (ACA) premium subsidies, warning that millions face immediate premium hikes if Congress does not act.Over 90% of ACA enrollees currently rely on expiring COVID-era tax credits, with many, including Lori Hunt, Dinam Bigny, Larry Griffin, and Patricia Roberts, facing sharp increases that could double or triple their health insurance costs.House Speaker Mike Johnson promised to present the GOP plan amid urgency expressed by Rep. Mike Lawler and public figures such as Francesco Casola for a bipartisan compromise to prevent a healthcare crisis.
