ACA TAX CREDITS EXPIRED
Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 5 (Thursday, January 8, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 5 (Thursday, January 8, 2026)] [House] [Pages H149-H150] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] {time} 1220 ACA TAX CREDITS EXPIRED (Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina. Madam Speaker, Christmas has come and gone. As the ball dropped bringing in a new year, families in eastern North Carolina and across the Nation literally on New Year's Day are feeling the squeeze of rising healthcare insurance costs. It is not a happy new year for everyone. These are hardworking families, our neighbors and friends, trying to raise kids and buy groceries, and they are small business owners. Congress must act to extend these subsidies so hardworking families aren't left stretching out tight budgets [[Page H150]] and forced to face skyrocketing health insurance premiums, or better yet, left without coverage all together. We can pursue meaningful reforms. Let me say it again. We can pursue meaningful reforms without sacrificing access to affordable care, and that is exactly what the people sent us here to do. ____________________
