"Democrats wrote Obamacare. They passed it without a single Republican vote, and then they ballooned it with these expensive Covid subsidies that completely distorted the health insurance market. And then they doubled down, extending those subsidies and setting their own expiration date right now in 2025."
"Is the president prepared to let this happen or or is he going to step in?"
"You said he he's working to find a solution, he wants to see a solution to lower healthcare costs,"
"But these subsidies are expiring at the end of the year. So what is the plan and what is he going to do to put this in place in the next two, three weeks?"
Millions of Americans face higher health insurance premiums as COVID-era Affordable Care Act subsidies are likely to expire at the end of the year after two Senate healthcare proposals failed. One failed bill would have extended the subsidies; an alternate bill would have expanded health savings accounts. More than 20 million people now brace for soaring costs. ABC News reporter Mary Bruce pressed White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on whether the president will act. Leavitt blamed Democrats for creating and expanding Obamacare with costly COVID subsidies and said the president is working with Republicans and his team to find and announce creative solutions soon.
