U.S. Health Policy

The House is set to vote this week on a GOP health-care package that omits an extension of the enhanced ACA premium tax credits, even as moderates and bipartisan groups press for a short-term fix and analysts warn millions could face much higher premiums if the subsidies lapse. Speaker Mike Johnson has declined to guarantee a House vote on an extension, prompting discharge-petition threats and intra-GOP splits — while Rep. Kevin Kiley and some other Republicans say they support a temporary extension amid ongoing shutdown and appropriations negotiations in the Senate.
