Carter, Sr. Statement on Restoring Tax Credits, Lowering Health Care Costs | 2026-01-08 | 2026 | 2026-01 | Democrat | House | LA | Troy A. Carter | C001125 | troycarter.house.gov | troycarter | https://troycarter.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Troy A. Carter, Sr. (D-LA) issued the following statement: “TODAY I proudly voted YES to extend the ACA Tax Credit for the American people! “One Democratic-led discharge petition, supported by four Republicans, that literally forced a vote on the House floor. That was followed by a procedural vote backed by 9 Republicans, and then a second procedural vote that passed with 11 Republicans joining us. Momentum built because this issue cuts across party lines. “This matters deeply in Louisiana and across our country, regardless of party affiliation. These ACA tax credits help Republicans, Democrats, Independents, and families who do not fit neatly into any political box. They are the difference between coverage and going uninsured for working families, small business owners, farmers, fishermen, seniors not yet eligible for Medicare, and people still recovering from hurricanes and economic disruption across Orleans, Jefferson, St. Bernard, Lafourche, and the River Parishes. For tens of thousands of Louisianans, affordable health care is not a talking point. It is survival. “Moments ago, we voted on and passed a three-year extension of the ACA tax credits, with 17 Republicans joining Democrats to put people over politics and do the right thing for their constituents. “Now, on to the U.S. Senate. I encourage Louisianans of every party to call your Senators and urge them to support this House-passed, three-year extension of the ACA tax credits.” ### | 1 | 2026-04-04T05:28:40Z | 2026-04-04T05:30:10Z |
