Larson (CT-01) voted against the Senate's dirty funding \u2018deal\u2019 that does nothing to lower health care costs but includes millions in taxpayer-funded payouts to Senate Republicans. If Republicans allow Affordable Care Act tax credits to expire, 19,000 CT-01 residents will see premiums spike, and the average family of four will see their annual premiums rise by $2,571.\n\n\u201cDonald Trump and his Republican puppets in Congress didn\u2019t have my vote when they created this health care crisis, and they don\u2019t have it now,\u201d said Larson. \u201cTheir refusal to extend health care tax credits means the average family in my district will see their premium costs rise by $2,571. One of my constituents even shared how his premiums will double, exceeding what he pays for his mortgage. That is not only unacceptable. It is immoral! On Donald Trump\u2019s watch, 15 million Americans are about to lose their health care. Millions more about to be saddled with skyrocketing premiums, including 112,000 people in Connecticut.\n\n\u201cInstead of fighting to ensure Americans have the health care they need, the fight in the Senate was resolved by ensuring eight Republican Senators padded their wallets at the expense of American taxpayers \u2014 as a political payout for having their records lawfully subpoenaed! If Republicans truly felt the current process was an invasion of privacy, why are eight Senators the only ones eligible for a payout? Why not all Americans? Tonight\u2019s vote is the most corrupt provision this chamber will vote on \u2014 ensuring a select few Senators will receive millions in taxpayer dollars. This only adds insult to injury already endured by the millions of Americans losing their health care coverage to pay for tax breaks for billionaires,\u201d Larson concluded.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T19:52:45Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://larson.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/larson-votes-against-dirty-senate-deal-fails-address-trump-health-care"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.45413214340806, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
