Statement of ACAP CEO Margaret A. Murray on House Passage of Tax Credit Extension
WASHINGTON—Margaret A. Murray, CEO of the Association for Community Affiliated Plans (ACAP), issued the following statement after the U.S. House of Representatives approved a bipartisan bill for a three-year extension of enhanced tax credits for Marketplace coverage:
“We commend the House for taking bipartisan action to extend these tax credits and mitigate the ill effects of the skyrocketing premium costs that many families who rely on Marketplace coverage have seen.
“These enhanced tax credits have been tremendously successful in containing premium costs for families and individuals who have worked hard and played by the rules in finding affordable coverage through the Marketplace. We commend the House in acting to shield these families from cost shock such as this – and call on the Senate to take similar action.
“American workers and families can’t afford for Congress to do nothing.”
