Report: House Democrats Seek to Force Vote on Expiring Obamacare CreditsSean Moran 12 Nov 2025
House Democrats hope to force a vote on enhanced Obamacare credits after shutting down the government over the credits’ looming expiration date.
House Minority Whip Katherine Clark (D-MA) said during a closed-door meeting that Democrat leadership hopes to seek an extension of the enhanced Obamacare credits by advancing a discharge petition, which would force a vote on the House floor if Democrats were to obtain 218 signatures. This is a rare feat; however, this tactic serves to pressure Republicans in swing districts.
The move would reauthorize the credits for three years. Democrats first enhanced the credits through the pandemic-era Biden stimulus plan, the American Rescue Plan. They continued the credits through the so-called Inflation Reduction Act, and the credits will expire on December 31.
