An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Vote to Extend ACA Subsidies and Protect Affordable Healthcare Access

10 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

I am writing to urge you to support the petition forcing a congressional vote on extending Affordable Care Act subsidies and to vote for passage of this critical legislation. The enhanced ACA subsidies are set to expire at the end of this year, and their loss would immediately increase insurance premiums for millions of Americans who depend on the ACA marketplace for coverage. Centrist Republicans have already demonstrated the courage to break from party orthodoxy by signing this petition. This bipartisan effort recognizes what should be obvious: healthcare policy must be based on what works for constituents, not on political vendettas against previous administrations. The enhanced subsidies have successfully made health insurance affordable for middle and lower-income families across the country, and allowing them to expire would cause real financial harm to real people. I expect you to act as a member of a co-equal branch of government, not as a rubber stamp for any administration's preferences. Your constitutional duty is to represent the interests of your constituents, and that means protecting their access to affordable healthcare. The fact that some Republicans are willing to stand up for this legislation shows that preserving these subsidies is not a partisan issue but a matter of basic governance and constituent welfare. Vote for the extension of ACA subsidies. Demonstrate that you are capable of independent judgment and that you prioritize the healthcare needs of the Americans you represent over political loyalty. Your constituents are watching to see whether you will protect their access to affordable coverage or allow premiums to spike simply because of partisan opposition to legislation passed over a decade ago. The time to act is now, before these subsidies expire and families face impossible choices about their healthcare.
