Affordable Care Act Tax Credits Dispute Affects 24 Million People
The ongoing government shutdown has highlighted the disagreement between Democrats and Republicans regarding the extension of Affordable Care Act (ACA) tax credits.
Democrats want to extend the tax credits, which make ACA health care premiums more affordable, before open enrollment begins on November 1. They have made this a condition of voting to reopen the government.
Republicans say there is time to figure this out after the government opens.
Brett Guthrie told WHAS11 in Louisville that the government should reopen before any health care negotiations begin.
This dispute impacts how 24 million people obtain affordable insurance. In Kentucky, nearly 100,000 people get their health coverage through Kynect, the state’s ACA marketplace.
