A debate now unfolding in Congress over the future of tax subsidies tied to the Affordable Care Act could have consequences for all Americans.

The outcome was widely expected after Democrats and Republicans released dueling bills. Congress is under pressure to address health care costs before federal subsidies lapse at the end of the year.

About 92% of the 24.3 million Americans who use the marketplace receive a subsidy of some amount, according to KFF. If Congress doesn't act and the credits expire at the end of 2025, out-of-pocket premiums would rise by more than 75% on average.

With the deadline to address expiring ACA tax credits fast approaching, GOP's John Thune announced that two competing health care plans will get a vote later this week.

The latest data showcases sustained support for some form of publicly funded health care, as the ACA has maintained an approval rating at or above 50 percent for the past six years, and has had plurality support from voters for the past eight years.

Democrats in the Coulee Region are urging lawmakers to take action to address what they call a health care crisis.
