Protect Our Care

The other day, I called up DonnaMarie, Steve, and Amy to hear how the Affordable Care Act changed their lives and thank them for the work they’re doing with @ProtectOurCare to protect it.

I hope you'll watch and share your own story: pic.twitter.com/DhAQWzxCYq

44 And 46: Together Again

31 Million People

Great memories of an important day. 31 million people now have health insurance—and the peace of mind that comes with it—thanks to the Affordable Care Act. Now @POTUS is committed to making it even stronger through his Build Back Better plan. https://t.co/RRgs0heacp

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) September 8, 2021

The Affordable Care Act was — and is — a big deal. I’m committed to building on the progress we’ve made since its passing to ensure every American has access to the quality, affordable care they need. pic.twitter.com/y8PaxLVrzl

Equal Access

It's always great catching up with @POTUS, and I'm grateful for everything he and his administration have done to protect and expand the Affordable Care Act. Let's keep working until every American has access to quality, affordable health care. https://t.co/WYCipaCeX4

Great news folks: we hit record-high health care enrollment. 31 million people now have coverage through the Affordable Care Act. Couldn’t think of a better person to celebrate this milestone with than President Obama, so I gave him a call. pic.twitter.com/QtLeskSNnY

Universal Coverage

Today, the Supreme Court upheld the Affordable Care Act. Again. This ruling reaffirms what we have long known to be true: the Affordable Care Act is here to stay.

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) June 17, 2021

The principle of universal coverage has been established, and 31 million people now have access to care through the law we passed—with millions more who can no longer be denied coverage or charged more because of a preexisting condition.

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) June 17, 2021

Now we need to build on the Affordable Care Act and continue to strengthen and expand it. That’s what @POTUS Biden has done through the American Rescue Plan, giving more families the peace of mind they deserve.

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) June 17, 2021

And because he extended the special enrollment period until August 15th, anyone who needs coverage can go to https://t.co/ob1Ynoesod and sign up.

11th Anniversary

Join me, @ProtectOurCare, and health care advocates from across the country to discuss 11 years of the Affordable Care Act and the work we still need to do to make sure all Americans have access to quality, affordable health care. Watch now: https://t.co/Rae2yr8EjZ

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) March 22, 2021

As part of the American Rescue Plan, @POTUS just signed the largest expansion of health care since the Affordable Care Act. It’s an example of how government is supposed to work, and exactly what I hoped would happen when I signed the ACA into law 11 years ago today. pic.twitter.com/G7WUgYdxOp

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) March 23, 2021

The Affordable Care Act has helped 20 million Americans get coverage—and up to 130 million Americans can no longer be denied coverage because of a preexisting condition. It has been a lifeline for Americans who've lost their jobs and their health insurance during the pandemic.

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) March 23, 2021

But I’ve always said that the ACA is like a starter home—it’s our job to keep tinkering with it and improving it over time.

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) March 23, 2021

And now, thanks to the hard work of President Biden, Senator Schumer, Speaker Pelosi, and Americans all across the country who have spent years fighting against repeal and pushing to improve the law, our starter home is starting to look pretty spacious.

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) March 23, 2021

The American Rescue Plan lowers premiums for millions of families, makes health insurance more affordable for low-and middle-income Americans, and provides incentives for states to expand Medicaid and cover as many as four million additional Americans.

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) March 23, 2021

Now we need to keep it up. Because until every single American has access to quality, affordable health care, we have more work to do—and I’m grateful to President Biden for continuing to lead the fight.

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) March 23, 2021

Healthcare.gov Is Open

Great news: Thanks to President Biden, starting today, you can go to https://t.co/ob1Ynoesod to sign up for health insurance. If you’re uninsured or hoping to change plans, here’s a good article that can help you figure out if you’re eligible. https://t.co/E2hibv2vRH

Only About You

The night the #ACA passed @BarackObama invited his entire team to celebrate on the Truman Balcony. He said that night was much more important to him than his 2008 presidential election night. Why? Because his passion to serve was never about him. It was only about you.

Until We Cover Everyone

Ten years ago today, I signed the Affordable Care Act into law. It protected preexisting conditions, cut the uninsured rate in half, and lots more. But it's still under political attack right when we need care the most. We have to protect it, build on it, until we cover everyone. pic.twitter.com/zz2v3DzMgq

Very Popular

With the 10-year anniversary of Barack Obama signing the Affordable Care Act into law taking place on Monday, Obamacare is as popular as it's ever been, the new NBC/WSJ poll finds. https://t.co/sxjeYQedlg
