Kevin Kiley Will Raise Health Care Costs for 20 Million Americans if He Has His Way

Two years ago, every single House Republican voted against the Inflation Reduction Act and the expansion of the ACA subsidies that kept health care costs down.

If Kevin Kiley and House Republicans had their way, they would let these subsidies expire and raise health care costs on roughly 20 million Americans - including roughly 32,000 people in CA-03.

Without the ACA subsidies, enrollees in CA-03 will pay roughly $3,120 more for health care, and approximately 3.4 million people would lose their health insurance nationwide.

Kevin Kiley and House Republicans have proposed numerous measures to raise health care costs, including raising the price of prescription drugs for 3.3 million people and privatizing Medicare.

DCCC Spokesperson Dan Gottlieb:
"Kevin Kiley has not only failed to lower health care costs for Californians, but threatens to raise costs even further. Voters can see that Kiley and House Republicans refuse to lift a finger to help them on pocketbook issues, and know they can never be trusted to deliver much-needed relief for Californians."
