| For six straight weeks, Ken Calvert has refused to address the health care crisis he created.
As millions of Americans begin shopping for health care tomorrow during the start of open enrollment, Californians will log on and see higher health care premiums because Calvert would rather be on vacation than working to find a bipartisan solution to his health care crisis.
Because Calvert and Republicans refuse to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits, more than 1.5 million Californians, including 30,000 of Calvert’s constituents, will face, on average, more than double the cost next year – forcing many to abandon their health coverage altogether. This is despite the overwhelming majority of Americans who support Congress extending the ACA tax credits.
Yesterday, the DCCC released a new digital ad in California’s 41st Congressional District to hold Calvert accountable for his refusal to take action and failure to lower costs.
DCCC Spokesperson Anna Elsasser:
“Ken Calvert is failing Californians. Open enrollment begins tomorrow, but Calvert is on vacation and millions of Americans will face higher costs – or be forced to go without health care – because he wants to shut the government down. Calvert will lose his seat next year because of this cruelty.” |
