Today I was proud to be at the White House to recognize passage of the Inflation Reduction Act. Thank you @POTUS and Congress for taking action to keep real money in the pockets of Americans and extend health care tax credits for nearly 13 million individuals.

We thank the House for passing the #InflationReductionAct, which includes the much-needed extension of the Affordable Care Act tax credits. This will protect nearly 13M Americans from higher costs. We look forward to @POTUS signing this bill into law. bcbs.com/press-releases/blue…

With a path to get everyone covered through the #ACA, we call on Congress to make the American Rescue Plan Act tax credits permanent. Without action, premiums could increase by $200/month – a cost hardworking families can’t endure. Read my full statement: bcbsa.co/6014wQitQ
