Health care costs surge for millions on January 1. Help keep the pressure on today.

On January 1, health care costs will spike for millions of people. Rates will double or even triple for many. Congress has adjourned for the holidays without extending the enhanced health care tax credits that have kept health insurance affordable for more than 20 million people.   

If you’ve received a letter from your health insurer saying that your health care costs are going up, please take a moment to share your rate increase on social media to keep pressure on Congress to prioritize people’s health.

My health care costs will go up by $xx per month—because health care tax credits expire on Dec. 31, and Congress left town without acting. Now I’m paying the price. I’m counting on them to fix this in January. We need #CareNotDelay.

On Jan. 1, health care costs will spike for millions. Mine will rise by $xx/month—because Congress adjourned without extending health care tax credits, which have helped keep health insurance affordable. Let’s put pressure on them to act in the new year. We need #CareNotDelay.

Sample Post 3

Because Congress left for the holidays without extending health care tax credits, health care costs will surge for millions. Patients can’t afford these extreme costs, and no one should have to go without care. I’m counting on Congress to fix this in January. We need #CareNotDelay—lives are on the line.
