MTG calls on Johnson to bring House back to DC and rails on GOP handling of health care
Greene criticizes GOP leadership for lacking a health care plan as millions face potential premium hikes up to 114% without renewed Affordable Care Act subsidies, she warns.
- On Wednesday, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene urged Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., to bring the House back to Washington, D.C., to vote on rising health-care costs.
- Expert research indicates expiration of ACA tax credits, which were extended until the end of this year, would raise premiums 114% for subsidized enrollees by 2026.
- Speaking from her House office, Greene said families pay $1,500 to $2,000 monthly and warned premiums could double in 2026, adding `Everyone's just getting destroyed`.
- Speaker Mike Johnson pushed back, saying Greene is ill-informed and Republicans say negotiations must wait until Senate Democrats back the stopgap funding bill through November 21.
- Greene's actions have left her further isolated from House leadership and the White House, and she is pushing for a full House vote to release Jeffrey Epstein case files and urge former President Donald Trump to meet victims.
