Oct. 7 (UPI) -- Rep. Marjorie Taylor, R-Ga., wants to negotiate with congressional Democrats to extend health insurance tax credits for working Americans and their families.
The conservative Georgia Republican aired her strong opposition to the Affordable Care Act but said not extending tax credits that expired with the 2025 fiscal year budget on Sept. 30 would double health insurance premiums for those enrolled in ACA plans, The Guardian reported.
"The ACA made health insurance unaffordable for my family after it was passed, with skyrocketing premiums higher than our house payment," Greene said Monday evening in a post on X.
She said she is "not a fan" of the ACA, but its political reality makes it necessary to extend the expired tax credits.
