Bessent says health-care announcement coming this week

The White House plans a two-year Affordable Care Act subsidy extension with new eligibility limits, delayed due to GOP opposition amid concerns of premium cost impact, says Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

  • President Donald Trump is expected to propose a health care policy framework aimed at extending subsidies in the Affordable Care Act, which are set to expire at the end of December, according to multiple media reports.
  • The proposal may include a two-year extension of subsidies and new eligibility limits for Obamacare, as indicated by Politico.
  • Around 22 million Americans could see their premiums double if the subsidies are not extended, meaning an average increase of $1,016 in 2026, as reported by KFF.
  • The White House plans to present a health care bill that focuses on reducing costs and possibly limiting eligibility for subsidies, but faces strong opposition from some Republicans.
