Moderate GOP Forces Vote on ACA Subsidy ExtensionFour Republicans join Democrats to push a three-year ACA subsidy extension preventing premium hikes in 2026.
- Four moderate House Republicans joined Democrats to compel a vote on extending key ACA subsidies set to expire this year.
- The proposed extension would maintain tax credits for three more years to avoid sharp premium increases for millions in 2026.
- House Speaker Mike Johnson previously blocked a standard vote and criticized the procedural maneuver used to force it.
- The GOP plans a separate health care bill early next year aimed at lowering costs and improving access.
When leadership blocks action entirely, Congress has a responsibility to act.— Mike Lawler, in a statement after signing the petition.
