Key Issues

  • Tax Credits Expired: Nearly four times more Virginians want Congress to reinstate tax credits that help pay for health insurance. These credits expired at the end of last year, leading to potential loss of coverage and rising insurance rates.

  • Impact on Virginians: Over 100,000 people in Virginia could lose their health insurance without the tax credits.

  • New Republican Bill: A recently passed bill by Republicans could cut Medicaid funding, leaving even more people without coverage.

Public Reaction

  • Congressman Ben Cline: Supports the bill, calling it a "big, beautiful win."
  • Virginians' View: Most disagree, worried about the impact on healthcare costs. They are already struggling with high insurance premiums, deductibles, and prescription drug prices.

Public Sentiment

  • Negative View: Most Virginians have a very negative view of health insurers and pharmaceutical companies.
  • Call for Change: Healthcare is a big issue, and Virginians want affordable care. They blame the government, insurance companies, and drug companies for the current situation.

Conclusion

With so many people unhappy, it's clear that healthcare needs to change.
