ACA PREMIUMS UP 58% THANKS TO NICK BEGICH

Share This Post:

After Nick Begich voted against extending the ACA tax credits, hardworking Alaskans are dropping coverage and facing skyrocketing health insurance premiums.

Thanks to Begich’s actions, ACA premiums increased 58% on average, forcing families across the country to shoulder the burden of extra costs or drop their coverage altogether.
Bar chart of average ACA Marketplace premiums from 2021 to 2026: 2021 4, 2022 3, 2023 9, 2024 1, 2025 3, 2026 8 (2026 shows +58%).

REMINDER: Begich also cast the deciding vote to gut Medicaid, and has repeatedly voted to raise costs on everyday families – forcing Alaskans to choose between groceries, gas, and health care.
