The MeidasTouch Podcast · Rep. Chris Pappas Discusses Trump’s Disaster Shutdown · 1 Nov 2025 podcast

Well, it's lies, it's incompetence, and it's not meeting the moment for the people that I represent here in the state of New Hampshire.

I mean, take the health care issue alone.

People can now in New Hampshire go online and compare plans on the ACA marketplace.

from 2025 and 2026.

And if you're a family of four that earns about $64,000 a year, your premium is going to triple.

So this is reality.

I don't know what the administration is talking about or citing here, but this is one of the reasons why Democrats are continuing to fight to make sure that healthcare is affordable and within reach to families, including the estimated 22 million that could see on average a 75% increase in their premiums.

as a result of the expiration of these credits.

So this is incredibly important.

We're talking about the health and well-being of our constituents.

Nothing could be more important.

And we need responsible leadership in Washington.

We're getting anything but that out of this administration.

As you mentioned, there is funding literally sitting in the account that could help go to pay the benefits to people who need food assistance, who are struggling to put food on the table right now.

That's 75,000 families in my state alone.

And they won't do it.

And that's just incredibly cruel.

And we need to figure out how we address this, whether it's pushing Speaker Mike Johnson to come back into session so we can pass a bill, or whether it's more pressure on the administration to do the right thing by the American people.

They are missing the mark at a time where people are struggling out there, whether it's health care, whether it's food.

Democrats are speaking out loudly and clearly, and we need cooperation.
