Let’s properly define the problem: we’re talking about continuing temporary COVID-era enhanced subsidies that have led to massive fraud. The original Obamacare subsidies will continue for all but 1.6 million people on the exchanges. Fixing that would cost a couple billion dollars, which we could find offsets to pay... show more

The “temporary COVID” enhanced subsidies only mask the failure of Obamacare. Premiums keep rising because of Obamacare’s faulty design. Democrats are the ones who set these subsidies to expire, not Republicans. And they should expire. I’ll be holding a hearing on Thursday assessing the damage Obamacare has inflicted on Americans.

To be clear, the Obamacare subsidies will continue. What’s at issue are the temporary, COVID-era enhanced subsidies that Democrats scheduled to expire at the end of this year. Obamacare’s faulty design is driving premiums higher. Instead of fixing the underlying problems, Democrats want to keep throwing money at the program to mask what has become a complete failure.

Let’s set the record straight on Biden’s COVID-era Obamacare subsidies: 1) These expiring subsidies benefit just 7% of Americans, yet all Americans are suffering with higher costs because of Obamacare. 2) Premiums are increasing regardless of whether these subsidies are extended, because Obamacare is bad policy and unsustainable. Premiums have already increased 221% from 2013 to 2025. 3) Biden’s COVID-era Obamacare subsidies don’t go to patients, they go straight to insurance companies — even for people making up to $400,000 a year. 4) Remember Democrats passed these subsidies twice, and extended them again. They set the expiration date. And they created the entire FAILED Obamacare system.

Healthcare premiums have risen by over 114% on the open market under Obamacare, even with the subsidies. We have to address the fundamental failure of Obamacare, which is that it actually hasn’t made healthcare insurance premiums in America more affordable.

Can someone please explain to me how short-term, temporary Obamacare subsidies passed during COVID suddenly became untouchable? Not a single Republican voted to extend these COVID subsidies in 2021 or 2022. We all recognized that Obamacare is a total disaster. Premiums have skyrocketed because of the ACA. But now we have four “moderate” Republicans who are siding with the Democrats to continue funding this miserable failure? If you want to show the public you’re serious about healthcare, stop wasting taxpayer money on Obamacare handouts to big insurance companies. Instead, let’s pass my ACCESS Act and send that money back to the American people. Learn More:

ObamaCare: Consumer Deception and Taxpayer Fraud ObamaCare subsidy fraud occurs because government agencies care little when spending taxpayers’ money, and insurers and brokers have every incentive not to stop it. As Americans wake up to ObamaCare subsidy fraud, we should remember: the root problem is the unaffordable, low value ObamaCare itself. Fraudsters are stealing from subsidies that feed this hungry, rapidly growing “dragon.” ObamaCare was originally sold to the American people as affordable. President Obama promised that premiums would go down by $2,500. Even then, many economists and analysts already predicted unaffordability we see today. Through numerous regulations, ObamaCare damaged both the insurance market and the provider market. Consolidation, stagnation, high price, and high premiums followed. Some people blamed private companies, but they are simply responding to the bad incentives created by ObamaCare. Others blamed the FTC for market consolidation, but by the time mergers and acquisitions reach the FTC, it’s already too late: ObamaCare has made the soil so toxic that only large entities can survive. That’s why ObamaCare is both taxpayer fraud and consumer deception. The Covid-era enhanced subsidy used taxpayer dollars to lure consumers into unaffordable plans they would not have bought otherwise. This, too, is consumer deception and taxpayer fraud. ObamaCare defrauds taxpayers three times: paying for expensive premium subsidies, paying fraudsters, and paying higher price and premiums for their own employer-sponsored healthcare—caused by ObamaCare. Except for a small group of people who benefited politically or financially from ObamaCare, all Americans lost. Patients were deprived of affordability and access that free markets would bring. Physicians, entrepreneurs, innovators, and American workers couldn’t achieve their full productivity potential. Our jobs, economy, and global leadership suffered.

Reporter: Would you make a deal with them on A.C.A. Subsidies? Trump: If we made the right deal. I’d make a deal. Sure. You have subsidies, that's the problem with Obamacare. The subsidies are so much, billions and billions of dollars are is being wasted. We could have a much better health care than we have right now.

Rep. Roy: "You have COVID-era subsidies that was put forward by Joe Biden, which is actually making the problem worse by driving up the cost of health care and these subsidies are rife with fraud. Also what we have is the absurdity of having $400 billion additional taxpayer subsidies that would cost taxpayers over the next decade over $40 billion a year. That goes into the hip pockets of insurance companies.... Democrats are absolutely trying to make this a political issue because they have nothing else to run on. Mike Johnson is correct, and the President is correct to tell them pound sand. We need to stand firm for the average hard working American, not the insurance companies."

Obamacare (ACA) explained … Democrats passed Obamacare which made deductibles so high that you rarely ever reach them, so you pay for insurance plus out of pocket for insurance you rarely use. Designed to hurt working class to fund healthcare for deadbeats and illegal aliens. From 2014 to 2021 it was getting worse. Then Biden and the Democrats passed temporary subsidies to hide how crazy expensive ACA insurance had become. Those subsidies expire Dec 31, 2025. Now Democrats want to extend those subsidies. If they could, they would even expand the subsidies more to further hide the disaster of Obamacare. Before Obamacare health insurance companies could offer cheaper plans with certain things excluded. But Obamacare banned those cheaper plans.

Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) tells CBS News’ Major Garrett health insurance premiums will go up for Americans, even if Congress is able to pass an extension of the enhanced Obamacare tax credits set to expire at the end of the year. “The premiums are going to go up, even if we do add these extended — but the main Obamacare, which pays for about 80% of premiums for people under 400% of the poverty level, those are going to stay in place. It’s the people over 400% of poverty level that are going to feel this, really, squeeze. But the real squeeze is the cost of healthcare for everybody. And that's what we need to address," Marshall says on "The Takeout."

The Democrats’ solution is Obamacare subsidies, which are direct payments to a handful of giant health insurance companies. It is corporate welfare on steroids. Since Obamacare passed, the profits of the largest healthcare companies have more than doubled.

Democrats are lying about Obamacare, so I called them out on CNN: 1) Premiums are increasing because the Democrats' Un-Affordable Care Act is bad policy and it is unsustainable. 2) Premiums are increasing because Congressional Democrats passed a law which included a 2026 expiration for COVID-19 subsidies. 3) These subsidies benefit just 7% of Americans, yet all Americans are suffering with higher costs because of Obamacare. 4) Americans earning 133%–400% above the poverty line keep their subsidies in 2026. That’s already permanent law and Democrats know it. 5) Democrats shut down the government because they wanted to hand $40 billion in subsidies to big insurance companies, not American families.

Democrats are hurting people everyday. On purpose. With no remorse. They claim it’s for some noble cause. Bullshit. What they really want is to reopen the Medicaid loopholes that allow illegal immigrants to access Medicaid, and they want to spend almost $400B to prop up Obamacare subsidies that go straight to insurance companies and NOT you, the patient. And to justify it? They lie. They tell you your premiums will double if they don’t get their way. That is total bullshit. The truth is that the CBO has already scored this. The expiration of those subsidies accounts for just 8% of any premium increase. Is that worth debating? Yes, of course it is. The entire system is flawed because Democrats designed it to be flawed when they created Obamacare. We could start by talking about how subsidies should go to your personal Health Savings Account instead of insurance companies. But let’s be clear: there’s no negotiating while the government is shut down. Period. You don’t get to hold federal workers, military families, and vital services hostage just to push partisan policy demands.

OBAMACARE subsidies set to EXPIRE. This means healthcare without ACA subsidies. Obama was basically funding insurance companies with your money and most likely receiving a generous kickback. Only 7% of Americans are actually on Obamacare. It was a complete failure and the bill that they will vote on empowers patients and doctors, not the insurers. Dr. Josh McConkey makes a crucial point that ACA subsidies are NOT sustainable at this rate in general. The ACA subsidies equal a total of 7% of our entire GDP, with recent projections rising even higher to around 8% of our ENTIRE GDP. Dr. McConkey states that the only way to fund such massive subsidies is "A MASSIVE RISE IN TAXES." ObamaCare must go.

When asked about contradicting statements from the White House on a possible plan to extend Obamacare premium subsidies, White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett says “sometimes people leak pre-decisional things that are confidential,” adding, “I think somebody did that.” But Hassett also adds: “I think that what we're going to see now, between now and Christmas, is that people are going to work this out, because we have a solution. The White House has a solution for cost sharing, and the Democrats have an alternative.”
