Premium Tax Credits make health care affordable for 20M+ people. If they expire, millions won’t be able to go to the doctor. Join us in urging Congress to make health care tax credits permanent & repeal the health care cuts they passed earlier this year: commcat.io/467vrRn #CareNotCuts

Born in our Committee, the enhanced premium tax credits were designed to make health care work for people, not companies’ bottom lines or the wealthy few. These tax credits bring down the cost of health care because no one should spend over 8.5% of their income to get care they need. #CareNotCuts

Lawmakers recently passed the biggest health care cuts in U.S. history—ripping coverage away from 15M ppl. Millions more will see costs soar if Congress allows enhanced premium tax credits to expire. We're fighting back. 📢 10/14: Join us & @familiesusa.bsky.social for a #CareNotCuts day of action!
