TOM KEAN JR. DID THAT: New Jerseyans Are Going Uninsured Due to Expiration of ACA Tax Credits

KFF poll finds majority of Americans blame GOP for high costs

Congressman Tom Kean Jr.’s refusal to extend the ACA tax credits has triggered a sharp rise in premiums, leaving New Jersey 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 Jerseyans is climbing, erasing a decade of progress in national health coverage.

For millions of hardworking New Jersey families, the choice between a doctor’s visit and a meal is no longer a hypothetical – it is a daily reality thanks to Kean Jr.

DCCC Spokesperson Eli Cousin:
“Congressman Tom Kean Jr. failed to extend the ACA tax credits and has allowed premiums to skyrocket under his failed leadership. New Jerseyans will remember in November.”
