Latest Health Care Tax Credit Bill Solution Emerges with More Bipartisan Support

""By cracking down on Medicare Advantage waste, capping eligibility while protecting working-class recipients and halting insurance fraud by unscrupulous brokers, the Fix It Act would prevent 22 million Americans who rely on ACA tax credits from seeing a sudden spike in healthcare costs, without adding to our nation's deficit," Liccardo, a former San Jose mayor, said in a statement. "There's a path to getting this done," Liccardo said."

""There is a healthcare affordability crisis in this country. Bringing down costs shouldn't be partisan. I am proud to cosponsor Rep. Liccardo and Rep. Kiley's bill, the Fix It Act, to extend ACA premium tax credits for two years to stop healthcare costs from spiking for 22 million Americans who rely on them," said Khanna in a statement. "Our bipartisan legislation will assure Americans are spared from a massive increase in health care costs that is just around the corner," added Kiley."

The Fix It Act would extend Affordable Care Act premium tax credits for two years, preserving subsidies for 22 million Americans. The proposal funds the extension by targeting Medicare Advantage waste, capping eligibility while protecting working-class recipients, and halting insurance fraud by unscrupulous brokers. Sponsors present the measure as fiscally responsible and assert it would prevent a sudden spike in healthcare costs without increasing the federal deficit. A bipartisan group of representatives from both parties has cosponsored the bill, framing it as a practical response to the nation's healthcare affordability challenges.
