Senator Jeff Merkley June 30, 2025 9:32 am
Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ is coming due: 24 million Americans are facing an avg. rate increase of 15% on health insurance bills. Insurers are seeking as much as 20% increase for those who utilize @HealthSourceRI.
Thanks to Trump’s tax bill, health insurance premiums will rise by an average of $700 a year for nearly 20 million Americans.
Working families shouldn’t pay more to give the billionaires a tax break.

This is what Republicans voted for in Trump’s “Big, Beautiful” BETRAYAL bill.
There’s nothing “beautiful” about families terrified about losing critical medical care.
