Extends help for more Americans to pay for health insurance premiums.

This bill would make it easier for more Americans to afford health insurance by extending current financial help. It would allow people earning more than 400% of the poverty line to get tax credits and continue higher premium assistance for others. The length of this extension would depend on how much money the government collects from certain tariffs.

What Would Change

Currently, financial help for health insurance premiums through tax credits is generally limited to people earning less than 400% of the poverty line, and increased assistance amounts are set to end after 2025. This bill would extend both of these provisions, allowing more people to get help with premiums and continuing higher assistance for others. The duration of this help would depend on how much tariff revenue is collected to cover the costs.

Key Provisions

Extends eligibility for health insurance premium tax credits to people whose household income is more than 400% of the poverty line.
Continues higher amounts of financial help for health insurance premiums that are currently set to expire.
Funds these extensions using money collected from tariffs (taxes on imported goods) that were put in place or increased after January 19, 2025.
Requires the Secretary of the Treasury to determine how long these extensions will last based on how much tariff money is available to cover the costs.
