ACA opens registration for 2025 and starts the 2024 race

What happened

Open enrollment for 2025 health insurance coverage through the Affordable Care Act Marketplace begins Friday, November 1st. About 21 million people currently receive health insurance through the ACA or Obamacare, although the upcoming presidential election “could threaten eligibility and increase costs for millions of program participants,” The Associated Press said.

Who said what?

The “future of ‘Obamacare’ has become a key issue in the final days of the presidential campaign,” the AP said after House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said “no Obamacare” at a campaign stop in Pennsylvania on Monday . He promised that “massive reform” of the ACA would be “a big part of the agenda” if Donald Trump wins and Republicans retain control of the House.
