U.S. Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) released a statement on rate hikes in Pennsylvania as a result of the Administration’s decision not to continue making cost-sharing reduction payments:
“These premium increases are the direct result of President Trump’s sabotage of our health care system. This sabotage must be stopped. Congress should be working in a bipartisan way to improve our health care system, yet congressional Republicans refuse to serve as an independent check and balance on President Trump’s sabotage. This Trump premium tax will make it harder for middle class families to make ends meet. Congress should pass legislation today that will force President Trump to make these payments, which help everyday Pennsylvanians afford health care.”
Attached, you will find a brand new report that Senator Casey is releasing to detail the impacts of this blatant sabotage.
