Jeanne Shaheen said "this amendment would extend vital Affordable Care Act tax credits for millions of Americans. We all know that healthcare is still too expensive. Unfortunately, this reconciliation bill that we are ultimately going to vote on is going to make that worse. In New Hampshire, we hear every day about people rationing medicines, skipping appointments, and delaying care all because of costs, but we can act now to lower those costs. We can extend those premium tax credits because if we don't act, they will skyrocket and 4 million Americans will lose their health insurance. I urge a ``yes'' vote on my amendment to reinforce our support for working families and their access to healthcare. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Idaho." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
