"We're learning President Trump is planning to unveil a new health care proposal. And at this point we're still waiting to know exactly what's in it, but we're told it could include a temporary extension of the enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies, which are due to expire at the end of the year. They were at the center of the government shutdown."
"As I noted, we are very much still waiting for specifics here, but and I'm sorry, this has actually been sorry Zach, we're getting breaking news while I'm talking to you. I have learned that the White House has postponed its expected unveiling of this new health care proposal. It was expected to be unveiled today. We'll learn more, hopefully, about that in the coming moments, but again, this is postponed."
President Donald Trump planned to unveil a new health care proposal that could temporarily extend enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies, possibly with income limits and a required premium payment. CNN anchor Jessica Dean returned from a commercial to introduce the framework and bring on Yale health policy professor Zack Cooper. Dean noted the subsidies are due to expire at year-end and that expiration could more than double premiums for millions. During Cooper's introduction, Dean received breaking news that the White House postponed the expected unveiling, interrupting the segment live on air and prompting a comedic on-air pivot. The postponement occurred amid discussions that the subsidies had helped trigger a government shutdown.
