Uninsured rate steady as subsidies loom past 2025
The uninsured share held at about 8 percent in 2023, near the record low, aided by expanded premium tax credits for marketplace plans enacted in 2021 and 2022. Enrollment rose to a record 20.8 million in 2023 and continued into 2024, driven by low premiums for many plans, especially for low income households. Substantial risk remains as subsidies expire in December 2025 unless extended, likely causing premium increases and potential loss of coverage for millions.

Ramesh Ponnuru argues Liz Cheney makes a strong case against Trump but weakly sells Harris. Cheney’s impeachment stance cost her House seat yet showed sincerity. Her endorsement exposes gaps between individual security concerns and national outcomes, plus unease with Harris on court reform and conservative principles.
