The House on Thursday, 1/8/2026, Approved the Renewal of the Expired Obamacare Subsidies, delivering a Blow to Republican Leadership and Underlining Conference Divides.
Seventeen Republicans joined 213 Democrats, in Support of the Three-year Extension, after the Affordable Care Act Tax Credits Lapsed at the End of 2025. The Bill, which Passed 230-196, will now Head to the Senate, where it has a Slim Chance of Moving to the Floor.
Earlier Thursday, the House Shot Down an Effort to Override Trump’s (R) Vetoes on Two Bipartisan Bills, underscoring GOP Lawmakers’ Loyalty to Trump.
Five Senate Republicans also joined Democrats to Advance a War Powers Resolution, which would Limit any further Military Action in Venezuela, after the Capture of President Nicolás Maduro last Eeekend.
Trump ripped GOP Sens. Josh Hawley (MO), Lisa Murkowski (AK), Susan Collins (ME), Rand Paul (KY) and Todd Young (IN), stating they “should never be elected to office again.” A Final Vote is expected Next Week.
