Bryan Steil and Trump’s Project 2025 Will Raise Health Care Costs for Working Families and Seniors

By backing Project 2025 supporters, Steil is embracing their far-right agenda

Bryan Steil’s Project 2025 is an extreme manifesto that would have far-reaching consequences if House Republicans were to win in November.

Steil’s Project 2025 would raise health care costs and threaten access to care for hardworking American families by: 

• Raising costs for 3.3 million people nationwide and nearly 299,000 Wisconsinites on Medicare by eliminating the Inflation Reduction Act caps on prescription drugs – including the $35 per month cap on insulin.

• Forcing more than 13 million Americans to pay more for their health care insurance by raising premiums.

• Raising costs on workers by putting a new tax on health insurance for millions who get insurance through their employer.

• Limiting benefits for disabled veterans by allowing fewer health conditions to qualify for disability benefits.

This isn’t the first time Steil has attacked health care. He called the Affordable Care Act a “disaster” and a “failed policy.” Repealing the ACA would gut quality, affordable health care, including for Wisconsinites with pre-existing conditions.

DCCC Spokesperson Mallory Payne:
“Bryan Steil has failed to lower costs for families for the past two years – which is bad enough. Now, because Donald Trump wants him to, Steil is pledging to raise health care costs for families. This is exactly the kind of extremism that has turned voters off of Steil’s Project 2025 agenda, and it’s why Wisconsinites will retire him in November.”
