The Biden administration says 20 million people have enrolled for health insurance through the Affordable Care Act marketplaces, with still a few days left for signing up
Some 20 million people have signed up for health insurance this year through the Affordable Care Act marketplaces, a record-breaking figure.
President Joe Biden will likely proclaim those results regularly on the campaign trail for months to come as former President Donald Trump, the Republican front-runner, vows to dismantle the Obama-era program.
The Biden administration announced Wednesday morning that 20 million have enrolled for coverage on the marketplace, days before the open enrollment period is set to close on Jan. 16.
The latest enrollment projections mean a quarter more Americans have signed up for coverage this year compared to last — another record-breaking year when 16.3 million enrolled in the program. Signs-ups spiked after Biden took office, with Democrats rolling out a series of tax breaks that give millions of Americans access to low cost plans, some with zero-dollar premiums.
So you’re moving the goal posts? Fine I’ll ignore your prior inaccuracy.
Vote on what? What bill are you saying they should spend time voting on even knowing it won’t pass?
The Democratically controlled Senate, unlike the House, has actually be moderately productive for the past few months in spite of a GOP Senator blocking important military promotions.
Here’s the voting schedule where there are multiple votes per day in session doing the business of the nation: Data Which of those votes actually accomplishing something do you want them to have skipped for your theoretical lip service vote?
If their rep isn’t introducing legislation for supporting affordable healthcare (which they aren’t) they non-voters already know who is not working on it.
I don’t think you have a very good grasp on the realities of the situation if this is what you believe is the mindset everyone in the Legislature holds.
Intelligent, but major caveat. The legislature only cares about getting in and then about tenure. There hasnt been a house, senate, or executive and cabinet that isn’t far right for about 45 years. Buying house members is stupidly easy.
There hasn’t been much productive in legislation in that entire time except the ACA. That had to happen in the first Obama term, and I’m grateful it managed to limp through in its shitty form. Obama might be the best republican president, but it doesn’t really help anyone.
Its difficult to consider your position further when you’re suggesting that everyone in the last 45 years has been far right in the Executive and Legislative branches. Far right is full blown fascist or authoritarian. You’re painting Barack Obama, Bernie Sanders, Daniel Inouye, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez all with that same brush as far right. Irrespective of their fine grain policy positions none of these folks even come close to “far right”.
And those are the only ones you can name. Barack has the ACA, but also renewed patriot act, seemed fine with drone strikes, etc. 3 people, or even the fab 6 (the 5 plus Bernie) doesn’t mean anything in a sea of corporate ownership.
They aren’t the only ones I can name. They were very easy to name as examples. You’re already moving the goalposts on what you said before. I can’t take anything you say as credible.
I hope you have a nice day.
Enjoy fascism, and have a nice day.
Every wonder why so many accounts stop responding to you?
Because he doesn’t relent and people like you get tired of being called on their bullshit over and over?
Weird.
Most people would have guessed it was all the insults first…
Feel free to quote each insult I’ve written in this thread.
