Ohio Sen. Jon Husted backs ACA subsidy extension with fraud and cost reforms, warning of steep premium hikes without it.
Ohio Sen. Jon Husted says he supports extending Affordable Care Act subsidies but insists any extension must include reforms to combat fraud and long-term healthcare costs.
Without an extension, premiums for over 20 million Americans could rise sharply, including about 513,000 Ohioans who rely on enhanced subsidies.
Husted, a Republican on the Senate Health Committee, plans to unveil proposals soon.
His comments come amid criticism from Democratic former Sen. Sherrod Brown, who blames Husted for rising healthcare costs.
The debate contributed to a recent 43-day government shutdown.
Husted also called for releasing Jeffrey Epstein investigation files, a move backed by former President Trump, who dismissed the demand as a "Democrat Hoax."
