Senate Republicans rejected the measure which sought to extend Affordable Care Act premium tax credits through 2028. “Republicans are choosing to rip away health care from millions of Americans on purpose,” said Senator Schatz. “At a time when the cost of everything is going up because of Donald Trump, people are now going to be forced to pay hundreds of dollars every month just to keep their plan or give up coverage entirely. This didn’t have to happen. We’ve been trying for months to prevent exactly this outcome, and people are now going to needlessly lose their coverage, get sick, or worse.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:09:11Z |
