FRESNO, Calif. (KMJ) — California Attorney General Xavier Becerra filed a motion with 18 other states on Wednesday, in an effort to compel the federal government to pay the subsidies to state health exchanges, under the Affordable Care Act.
“This is no longer about a campaign promise or a punchline. The Trump Administration is willingly breaking the law by refusing to make required payments that keep healthcare affordable for millions of Americans. It is taking active steps to sabotage the Affordable Care Act,” Becerra says.
A bipartisan U.S. Senate effort to restore the payments was announced on Tuesday.
However, it’s already run into opposition.
