ACA补贴于2026年1月1日到期,提高了对中低收入家庭的保险费和威胁性保障。 Federal ACA subsidies expired Jan. 1, 2026, raising premiums and threatening coverage for low- and middle-income families.

参议员彼得·韦尔奇(D-Vt.)对保险费上涨和获得医疗保险的机会减少表示关切,特别是中低收入家庭,因为根据《负担得起的护理法》提供的联邦补贴于2026年初到期。 Senator Peter Welch, D-Vt., expressed concern about rising premiums and reduced access to health insurance, particularly for low- and middle-income families, after federal subsidies under the Affordable Care Act expired at the beginning of 2026. Welch警告说,这种失效可能会提高无保险利率,破坏ACA的收益,并敦促立即采取立法行动,延长或取代补贴,稳定保险市场。 Welch warned that the lapse could raise uninsured rates and undermine the ACA's gains, and urged immediate legislative action to extend or replace the subsidies and stabilize the insurance market. 他强调了两党合作在维护核心保护,同时确保负担得起、可获得的护理方面的重要性。 He emphasized the importance of bipartisan cooperation in preserving core protections while also ensuring affordable, accessible care.
