MIKE LAWLER DID THAT: New Yorkers Going Uninsured Due to Expiration of ACA Tax Credits

KFF poll finds majority of Americans blame GOP for high costs
Mike Lawler’s refusal to extend the enhanced ACA tax credits has triggered a sharp rise in premiums, leaving New York families with impossible choices. According to new reports, a staggering majority of ACA enrollees are now cutting back on food, utilities, and other essentials just to afford their monthly premiums.

As premiums skyrocket, the number of uninsured New Yorkers is climbing, erasing a decade of progress in national health coverage.

For millions of hardworking New York families, the choice between a doctor’s visit and a meal is no longer a hypothetical – it is a daily reality that will be answered at the ballot box.

DCCC Spokesperson Riya Vashi:
“Mike Lawler bent the knee to Donald Trump and failed to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits. New Yorkers will remember in November.”
