Greene Breaks with GOP, Calls to Avoid Obamacare Premium Hikes
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a prominent Republican, voiced support for extending expiring Obamacare subsidies to avoid premium hikes, breaking from her party’s stance. Greene, citing concerns about doubled insurance premiums for her constituents, including her own children, emphasized her focus on supporting Americans. Despite the split within the Republican party, leaders like House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune have insisted on no discussion of this issue until Democrats concede on reopening the government. Greene’s public stance, expressed on X, drew attention, even from Democrats, like Rep. Greg Casar.
