Before Biden's EO, if a spouse's employer offered family coverage you were ineligible for a marketplace plan.
My husband's employer offered family coverage for over 70% of his salary, but because his individual coverage was affordable, that made me ineligible for the ACA.

Absolutely maddening from a media negligently refusing to read their own sources!
The order resulted in 5 million more people with health coverage by last year. 10 million new people had signed up by this year. Why did they not read the Executive Order?

Trump admin ordered a full pause on external communication from federal health agencies:
CDC, FDA, NIH.
They are banned from sharing any outbreak updates, advisories, food recalls— nothing without political approval, not even to local health departments.
This is NOT normal.

This timeline gives us worse news every minute. I’m very worried most people will tune out to anesthetize themselves and miss that hurt and heartache being generated in our country UNTIL it’s impacts them or their loved ones e. and that is coming.
We're debating the nazi salute instead of talking about the real harms this does. I tried to find anyone else talking about it, the only mention is from but even they don't ever press "1 in 4 of you are about to lose your health coverage". smdh
Come on !
EO "instructed" the IRS to fix the family glitch (I have no idea what it is). So how can an another EO order the IRS to unfix this glitch ? Trump already tried to repeal Omabacare and failed.
Laws don't function as intended, they function as written— The ACA didn't specify in 2014 whether "coverage affordability" was determined by the cost to the employee or cost to employee+dependents.
Biden asked the IRS to issue and finalize a rule clarifying affordability through

Adults under 65 who aren't disabled or caring for minor children are not eligible for Medicaid regardless of how low their income is, because Florida hasn't expanded Medicaid under the ACA.
In 2024, Florida had 4,211,902 people enrolled in their ACA Marketplace plan. Up from 2,723,000 people in 2023. This will likely kick about 1.5 million off in Florida.
Florida not expanding medicaid left a coverage gap for people between 100-138% of the poverty leve, but those

I guess he wants child mortality rates to go up but only if they have single parents. Mama should be in the kitchen while her hubby works. 50’s mentality. So wrong.
This almost exclusively effects married parents staying home with young children. If you're employed you get insurance from work or the ACA, if you're below the poverty line you get Medicaid.
This was *the only* part of our system that helped moms stay home with kids, which is

Donald Trump returns to the presidency with big ambitions to shake up health care including public health institutions, federal health programs, and high costs.
This explicitly and intentionally is to unfix the family glitch.
Trump's EO calls for "rescinding all Federal Government actions taken pursuant to" E.O. 14009 and everything else he listed.
The Federal Government action taken pursuant to EO 14009 was fixing the Family Glitch, as

Daddy's company won't pay for Mommy to see the doctor.
Biden told the government to let all the Mommies purchase health insurance from them, so they can see the doctor.
Trump took it away.
Mommy died.
Oh fuck.
This very well could affect me as well. Technically my husband is self employed, but he’s working with an employment broker who in short takes out the taxes as if he’s w-2, and also provides health insurance.
I have treatments every 3 wks that run 15k per visit. I

So sorry.
The US needs a complete overhaul of the Healthcare system.
Our Australian model is pretty good, but not perfect of course. No such thing as medical bankruptcy here.
The ACA is the Australian model ffs. Highest costs, and no healthcare system. Taking away the middle-class affordable option is a bad idea.

Joe Biden said the quiet part out loud: they want to lock Trump up and throw away the key.
Did you know that before Obamacare you could just get whatever insurance plan you wanted?
That happened in 2014 and 2017. There are no laws about what you’re “allowed” to buy and there is no penalty for not buying.
He did it.
President Donald J. Trump is heading BACK to the White House to Make America Great Again!
Are you ineligible to purchase on the marketplace or ineligible for premium assistance on the marketplace?
Ineligible to purchase on the marketplace because of the offer of coverage.
This is propaganda we’re told and empirically not true. Health care costs exploded in the 1980s to early 2000’s. They’re just capitalizing on the fact that people don’t look at rate of change over time.
Legal residents and green card holders can usually access the subsidized marketplace plans or get Medicaid after ~5 years.
Otherwise they need to purchase it privately or through their employer.
Glad I didn't sign up just to have care jerked away. The Republicans have been against Americans having access to doctors and nurses for so long I learned to live without medical care.

And the fewer the number of people participating in the ACA, the more expensive and/or costly to the government the plans become.
Just cruel. Dont tax corporations or billionaires! Just cut services and raise taxes on the struggling people.

This doesn’t affect me at all, but I’m bookmarking it to write some letters and make calls.
Trouble is, it wasn’t a “glitch,” but an intentional element of the law designed to produce a lower CBO score than otherwise. It has to be changed by law, not by Presidential Decree.
But there are still people screaming “both parties are the same” when Republicans pull evil shit like this when in power.
This is probably for the best. Americans were so angered by the state of insurance coverage under the ACA that one of them shot a guy last month!
Was your health insurance “affordable”? Mine sure as shit isn’t. It’s criminal.
Congress should step in and clarify what they think should be occurring. It's not like Dems haven't had trifectas since ACA passed in 2009.
Traitor 47 is a cruel puppet for Putin. His job is to weaken America, and he's doing an A-1 job of it.
So, while MAGAs did not acknowledge Biden’s successes, they will learn about them through realizing what they loose by Trump destroying these in pure spitefulness.
Dude said Florida won't care because they 'didn't expand medicaid'.
Florida was second only to Texas in new enrollments with this change, adding 1.5 million people.
4.2 million people, 36% of adult Florida residents 20-64, are enrolled in an ACA marketplace plan!
