    2.8M acquire health coverage

    “Obamacare” grows by about 20 percent since last year. Florida has the most enrollees.

    BY DARLENE SUPERVILLE

    Associated Press

    WASHINGTON — Nearly 3 million consumers took advantage of a special six-month period to sign up for subsidized health insurance coverage made more affordable by the COVID-19 relief law, President Joe Biden says.

    He called that number encouraging and urged Congress to keep the trend going by extending the more generous financial assistance, currently available only through the end of next year.

    “That’s 2.8 million families who will have more security, more breathing room, and more money in their pocket if an illness or accident hits home,” Biden said in a statement on Wednesday. “Altogether, 12.2 million Americans are actively enrolled in coverage under the Affordable Care Act — an all-time high.”

    That’s an increase of about 20 percent since the end of last year.

    More than 1.9 million Floridians receive health insurance through the federal exchange, with the overwhelming majority of those people receiving subsidies. That’s more than any other state.

    Biden had ordered the HealthCare.gov marketplace to reopen Feb. 15 for six months, through Aug. 15, to give uninsured people another opportunity to sign up for coverage for themselves and their families during the pandemic. New census numbers show that about 28 million people were uninsured last year, but the steep coverage losses that many feared were averted as about 9 in 10 Americans retained private or public coverage.

    HealthCare.gov plans became significantly cheaper this April due to enhanced subsidies in the COVID-19 relief law. All the while, coverage through Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program has also been growing, reaching more than 82 million people.

    The Obama-era Affordable Care Act, enacted in 2010, is aimed at increasing health cover

    age by offering subsidized private insurance nationwide for people who do not get health care benefits from their employer. The law also expanded Medicaid for low-income adults, and most states have taken advantage of that option.

    Together, the two components cover about 27 million people, according to the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation.

    Biden said that the subsidies in his COVID-19 relief law have helped trim premiums by about $67 a month for people who were already enrolled in ACA plans, and that 4 in 10 new customers during the special sign-up window found coverage for $10 a month or less.

    Let me count that ways that liberal voters are being played for chumps.


    3 letters - AOC


    Stands for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez


    Political Leaning: Socialist


    Latest news on AOC:

    Attended $35,000 per ticket gala and her date was none other the Seagram's heir Benjamin Bronfman. Networth? Billions.

    Highlight of the gala - AOC and her date were maskless but a masked worker was spotted carrying her long dress tail so it wouldn't be sullied on the New York street.

    Fighting for my life’
    In the months since the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, videos and investigations have underscored how violent it was.

    The attack broke windows and damaged offices in the Capitol building. Lawmakers and their staffs, fearing for their lives, tried to hide. The rioters beat and maced police officers, with prosecutors counting about 1,000 physical assaults. About 150 officers suffered injuries, and many are still coping with psychological trauma.

    “I felt like I was fighting for my life,” one Capitol Police officer told The Times. “I can tell you, legitimately, I did not think I was going to make it home.”

    Yet even as the details of the attack have become clearer, the condemnation of it has become less widespread. Instead, a growing number of Republicans and their media allies have downplayed the riot. Some have begun to treat it as a heroic act.

    Please proceed. I want to hear your conspiracy theory on why he wasn't the real president.
