This is the most important battle this year-end. . .

About 24 million people are on Obamacare, and 9 out of 10 of them use our tax dollars to pay for their insurance. These subsidies, meant to be temporary, have expired. Republicans have not coalesced around legislation for the upcoming vote. Everything is in flux.

Some Republicans are questionable regarding the road ahead. But you can’t “fix” socialism with a Band-Aid.

This is the best chance we have of stopping socialized health care. It will be a huge battle for the rest of the year.

Fax Congress and urge them to end Obamacare subsidies and provide real health care choices.

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson admitted — somewhat jokingly — that he has “PTSD” from the last Obamacare battle. This won’t be easy.

Republicans are caught between the people on Obamacare wanting continued subsidies and taxpayers who don’t want to pay for a broken health care system where obscene profits go to insurance companies.

While taxpayers urgently demand relief from skyrocketing premiums, Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA) is countering by reportedly pushing the very same kind of taxpayer-funded extension to prop up Obamacare’s failing framework.

His bipartisan group released a set of “principles” to extend Obamacare tax credits. This is a non-starter. A pig with lipstick is still a pig!

Instead of funding a sinking ship, Congress should unlock private sector innovation and competition to reduce costs and provide better choices.

If we allow lawmakers like Rep. Fitzpatrick to lead us down the Obamacare road, Americans will pay more for less, while insurance companies will rake in the profits. Congress must instead hear our message: No more Obamacare bailouts! We need bold reforms, lower costs, and health care freedom. Let’s show Fitzpatrick and the rest of Congress that we’re not satisfied with more of the same.

Urge Congress to employ out-of-the-box thinking to fix this massive, and expensive, problem the Democrats created.

Open enrollment is happening now for Obamacare, but the coverage won’t kick in until February 1. At the same time, “The premium increases are the biggest we’ve seen since the ACA exchanges were set up,” says Gideon Lukens, a senior fellow and director of research and data analysis on the health policy team at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. This comes from private insurance companies raking in hundreds of billions of dollars.

The private sector has ALWAYS been able to outperform government programs. But the medical field has been hamstrung by 60 years of bad policies, and now we are inching toward a fully socialized system.

Obamacare has never lowered health care costs. Prescription drug costs, hospital charges, and chronic care expenses have exploded. Families are crushed. Doctors are burning out. Rural hospitals are shutting down. And at the end of all this spending, what do the American people get? Higher prices, fewer choices, and insurance executives with huge bonuses.

It doesn’t have to be this way. And if Congress would stop sprinting from crisis to crisis, they could unleash solutions that actually lower costs and expand choices. Encourage transparent cash pricing. Allow small businesses to band together in buying groups. Free telehealth innovation. Expand health sharing. Smash the regulatory walls that keep new competition from entering the market. And allow new insurance models to break the monopoly of a failed system.

We are asking Congress to stop trying to resurrect a collapsing system and instead build a better system for American families. But they will only act if they feel a tidal wave of pressure from the American people.

That’s why your faxes are so critical.

Every fax right now hits Congress in the middle of a panic — and they know they’re out of time. They know they are sitting on a political powder keg. They know the subsidies are gone. And they know they will pay a price — one way or another — for how they vote.

You can influence them today with your faxes.

If Congress chooses the easy path — renewing Obamacare without reform — premiums will climb. More hospitals will close. More families will be crushed. The bureaucrats will win, and the people will lose.

But if Congress chooses courage — and freedom — we could see a renaissance in American medicine. Lower costs. Higher quality. Real competition. Real choice.
