Gives highlights in ACA anniversary statement.
Last week, President Joe Biden celebrated the 12th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act, former President Barack Obama’s signature legislation that addressed health care coverage. President Biden shared that more than 14.5 million Americans enrolled for ACA’s health insurance for 2022, a 21% increase in enrollment from the year before. President Biden also shared ways that the ACA has impacted healthcare overall.
“This law is the reason we have protections for pre-existing conditions in America,” President Biden stated. “It allows millions of Americans to get free preventive screenings, so they can catch cancer or heart disease early — saving countless lives. And it is the reason why parents can keep children on their insurance plans until they turn 26.”
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For the president and his administration as they promote federal health coverage.
- For U.S. officials tasked with the administration of the Affordable Care Act.
- For Americans who are in need of health care insurance.
