The question we all need to ask Congress about the ACA subsidies:

Can't we agree to do BOTH? Fund the immediate premium stability while working on a real, long-term plan to reign in costs? 🗓️

The political fight over "Fund vs. Fix" is unacceptable when millions face a healthcare price spike. Stability now, cost control next. It's time to choose people over posturing.

We know exactly why child poverty spiked last year. Congress just doesn't care.

The expanded Child Tax Credit expiring was a choice from Congress and Joe Manchin in particular to not prioritize raising kids out of poverty.
