House Not Voting On Extending Obamacare Subsidies

The Republican-led House will not vote on a measure extending Obamacare enhanced subsidies that expire in two weeks. Speaker Mike Johnson said efforts were made to hold the vote, but it didn’t work out in the end. Johnson’s announcement infuriated moderate Republicans who had been pushing to go on the record about the subsidies. The speaker acknowledged that about a dozen GOP members in competitive districts are “fighting hard to make sure that they reduce costs for all of their constituents.”
