BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. KRISHNAMOORTHI. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of extension of the ACA tax credits.

I met Shadene Butchart in Chicago. She has ALS. Since the ACA tax credits have expired, her health insurance premium consumes the entirety of her husband's Social Security check. She will not be able to afford any health insurance to cover this incredibly distressing disease.

I rise strongly in support, and I urge my colleagues to support it, as well.
