Poll: Support for Extending the Expiring Enhanced ACA Tax Credits Remains High, But Dips Among Republicans and MAGA Supporters as Shutdown Continues and Partisanship Takes Hold
Democrats Overwhelmingly Back Congressional Democrats Holding Out for Budget Deal that Extends Tax Credits, Though Independents Are Split on the Approach
*
As the government shutdown continues, public support remains high for extending the enhanced ACA tax credits set to expire atthe end of the year, with three quarters (74%) of the public in favor of extending them, a new KFF Health Tracking Poll (https://www.kff.org/public-opinion/kff-health-tracking-poll-public-weighs-in-on-health-care-debate-and-government-shutdown/) finds.
The expiring tax credits are a central issue in the ongoing Congressional budget standoff, as Democrats want the tax credits extended as part of a budget deal while Republicans want to reopen the government before negotiating over an extension. Without the enhanced tax credits, ACA Marketplace enrollees who benefit from them would on average have to pay more than twice as much out of pocket in premiums next year.
The new poll finds little change in the public's views on extending the tax credits since before the shutdown began, though support among Republicans dipped (from 59% in September to 50% now). Among those who identify as supporters of President Trump's "Make America Great Again" movement, support fell from 57% in September to 44% now.
When asked about Congressional Democrats' strategy of refusing to approve a budget unless it includes extending these tax credits, even if it means the government remains shut down, partisans firmly align with their party's position.
Overall, about half (48%) are supportive of Congressional Democrats' position, including 81% of Democrats. Similarly, half (50%) say they should approve a budget without an extension of the tax credits to quickly end the shutdown, even if it means the cost of health insurance will increase for some people, including 84% of Republicans. Independents are split (51% in favor of Congressional Democrats' position; 47% favoring a quick end to the shutdown).
More than half (55%) of those who purchase their own health insurance, most of whom do so through ACA marketplaces, say Democrats should refuse to approve a budget that does not include an extension for ACA subsidies.
Looking ahead to next year's midterm elections, the poll includes some early signs that voters give the Democratic Party an advantage on issues related to health care costs.
When asked which party they trust to do a better job on the future of the ACA, larger share of voters say that they trust the Democratic Party (43%) than the Republican Party (32%).
Similarly, when asked about addressing the high cost of health insurance, more voters also say they trust the Democratic Party (39%) than the Republican Party (33%) to do a better job. While independents are more likely to trust Democrats than Republicans on the future of the ACA, they are split when it comes to trust to address the cost of health coverage.
Other findings include:
* Among those who want the tax credits extended, most say that either Congressional Republicans (38%) or President Trump (37%) would deserve most of the blame if they weren't extended. Fewer say Congressional Democrats (23%) would deserve most of the blame.
* About half (47%) of the public correctly says that undocumented immigrants are not eligible to buy ACA marketplace coverage. About one in seven (14%) incorrectly say that they are eligible to buy marketplace coverage, while the rest are not certain. Similar shares of Republicans and Democrats know the correct answer.
Designed and analyzed by public opinion researchers at KFF, this survey was conducted October 27-November 2, 2025, online and by telephone among a nationally representative sample of 1,350 U.S. adults in English and in Spanish. The margin of sampling error is plus or minus 3 percentage points for the full sample. For results based on other subgroups, the margin of sampling error may be higher.

Responding to the impact of Typhoon Kalmaegi (local name Tino) and a potential Super Typhoon Fung-wong (local name Uwan), which could hit the country by this weekend or early next week, Maria Rosario Felizco, Oxfam Philippines Executive Director said:
"Typhoon Kalmaegi carved a path of devastation, leaving a massive humanitarian emergency in its wake. The destruction has beenimmense, affecting millions of people and stretching the country's disaster response capacities to their limits.
"As the full picture is still emerging, the number of dead and affected is likely to rise sharply in the coming days. We know there's been widespread damage to housing, infrastructure and agriculture, power lines are down, and numerous roads and bridges remain impassable, which is severely hampering relief efforts.
"While Oxfam and partners are starting to deliver aid to those in need, the crisis is far from over. The country, already reeling from consecutive disasters, is on high alert once again with a potential super typhoon brewing that could be even more deadly.
"These disasters hitting the Philippines are yet another example of vulnerable communities bearing the brunt of extreme weather exacerbated by the climate crisis - A crisis that has been fueled by the biggest polluters who must be held to account and pay for the damage they've caused."

Hochul administration approves climate-damaging fracked gas pipeline in NY harbor, which also threatens to saddle New Yorkers with higher bills
New York, NY Governor Kathy Hochul's Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) today granted a water quality certification for the controversial Williams Northeast Supply Enhancement (NESE) fracked gas pipeline even though Williams failed to show the project would comply withNew York's water quality standards. The project is also expected to saddle National Grid customers with $3.2 billion in costs over 15 years. The pipeline which President Trump personally pressured Hochul to approve has drawn overwhelming opposition from communities concerned about threats to local waters, costs, and climate impacts.
More than 50,000 public comments, a letter from ten Democratic members of Congress including Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and a statement from 130 New York elected officials all condemned the project.
Hochul's pipeline will degrade water quality along NYC beaches, raise utility bills for families and businesses, and lock New Yorkers into decades of fossil fuel dependence at a time when science demands a rapid shift to renewable energy. The Governor's DEC rushed the project's approval through an abbreviated review with no public hearings.
"This decision is a betrayal of New Yorkers," said Laura Shindell, New York State Director at Food & Water Watch. "In granting the certification for this pipeline, Governor Hochul has not only sided with Trump, she's fast-tracked his agenda. Hochul has shown New Yorkers she'd prefer to do Trump's dirty work rather than protect our waterways from pollution. She hasn't kept her promises to fight against skyrocketing energy bills or the climate crisis. But New Yorkers will fight Hochul's dirty pipeline every step of the way alongside our communities until it is stopped for good."
"Governor Hochul should know that New Yorkers can't afford the approval of more fracked gas pipelines like Williams' NESE project. We can't afford it in our utility bills, we can't afford it in more climate pollution, and we can't afford more polluted water. While the DEC has previously rejected this proposal multiple times, with this decision, New York is now moving backwards to do the bidding of the fossil fuel industry and its promoters in the White House - at the expense of the public," said Eric Wood, Senior Environmental Program Coordinator for NYPIRG, the New York Public Interest Research Group.
"Governor Hochul's support for the Williams NESE fracked gas pipeline puts fossil fuel profits over New Yorkers who swim, surf, fish, work, and raise families along our coast," said Emily Bryant-Alvarez and Saylor Pochan of the Surfrider Foundation NYC Chapter. "New Yorkers have already said no to this project, and Surfrider continues to firmly oppose it as well. We fought it before, and we will fight it again for our beaches, our oceans, our future, our communities, and our climate."
"Our 4,500 members are furious with Governor Hochul for her approval of the Williams NESE pipeline," said Sara Gronim, co-leader of 350Brooklyn. "Hochul said she would prioritize affordability, but her actions speak louder than words since the cost of this multi-billion dollar project will fall squarely on National Grid's customers. She also said she cared about the law, but this project would violate laws protecting us from pollution and the NYS mandate to transition from fracked gas to renewable energy. And finally, she said she cares about energy reliability but we already have plenty of fracked gas, and there will be even less demand for it in the future. How dare Governor Hochul betray ordinary New Yorkers and support wealthy utilities and investors instead!"
"As a parent, I'm outraged that Governor Hochul is siding with the Trump administration over working families by approving the Williams NESE pipeline," said Samantha Gore, member of Climate Families NYC. "Her decision will raise rates on working parents, forcing us to pay three billion dollars to build a pipeline we don't want, for gas we don't need. Williams NESE will also destroy our public beaches, poison our kids, decimate marine life, and worsen the climate crisis. Our children are counting on our elected officials to act in their best interest. Right now, that means investing in clean, renewable energy and standing up to Trump. Instead, Hochul is caving to the administration at the expense of kids' health and their futures. Because of Kathy Hochul, this may be the last summer that New York City families like mine can enjoy the Rockaway public beaches. New York families will remember this decision and hold her accountable."
"It is deeply suspicious that under Governor Hochul's leadership, the DEC applied the same legal requirements that led to three prior denials and suddenly approved the same harmful Williams NESE proposal," said Kim Fraczek, Director of Sane Energy Project. "This isn't just a reversal; it dismisses the real struggles New Yorkers face, shows she won't stand up to Trump, and ignores the law designed to protect our communities. National Grid's own filings show no benefit to customers, only higher bills, so AI data centers can treat our state like a casino, leaving working families that she was elected to serve, with more debt and risk."
"The No North Brooklyn Pipeline Alliance stands firmly against the Williams pipeline being constructed," said Margot Spindelman of the No North Brooklyn Pipeline Alliance. "We are dismayed that Governor Hochul has not used her power to say no to corporations seeking to profit by attacking our communities. We cannot afford another increase to our utility bills. It has been proven that we do not need more gas. What we need is a governor who will protect our climate, our health, and our bottom lines. This is a betrayal of New Yorkers by Governor Hochul. We will not pay to be poisoned."

CAIR-NY Condemns Islamophobic, Anti-Palestinian Rant Targeting Couple on New York Subway

The New York chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-NY), a chapter of the nation's largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, today condemned a reported Islamophobic and racist anti-Palestinian outburst against an Iranian and Palestinian couple riding the New York Subway.
CAIR-NY said the incident highlights the persistent threat of hate crimesand bigotry facing Muslim and immigrant communities across the city.
In the video recorded and posted online by the Iranian influencer Ariana Jasmine, a woman who claimed to be both Jewish and a Trump supporter, was repeatedly seen harassing both Jasmine and her companion, Youssef, by calling them "terrorists" and making derogatory remarks about Middle Eastern identity and Palestine. Youssef's keffiyeh was mocked and called a "terrorist towel", and she also declared that "Palestine doesn't exist," and continued her verbal assault even after distancing herself from the couple on the train.

SEE : Instagram Post
As the video spread quickly, reaching over two million views on Instagram, countless viewers, especially Muslim New Yorkers, shared similar experiences of harassment they faced while wearing cultural attire, including but not limited to the keffiyeh. One viewer recognized the woman as someone who had previously assaulted another subway rider in a similar incident.
In a statement, Afaf Nasher, Esq., CAIR-NY Executive Director, said:
"This hateful outburst is a stark reminder that Islamophobia and anti-Palestinian bigotry remain deeply rooted problems in our city. No New Yorker should ever be made to feel unsafe or dehumanized because of their faith, ethnicity, or cultural identity. We urge city officials and law enforcement to take this incident seriously and to ensure accountability, protection, and education that foster understanding rather than division."
Earlier this year, CAIR released its 2025 Civil Rights Report, Unconstitutional Crackdowns, which reveals that Islamophobia remains at record-high levels nationwide. CAIR said viewpoint discrimination against those speaking out against genocide and apartheid was a key factor in many cases.
CAIR-NY's mission is to protect civil rights, foster a deeper understanding of Islam, promote justice, and empower American Muslims.
La mision de CAIR-NY es proteger las libertades civiles, mejorar la comprension del Islam, promover la justicia, y empoderar a los musulmanes en los Estados Unidos.

Advanced Pediatric Emergency Care in Greene County
Families in Greene County now have convenient access to nationally ranked pediatric emergency care, thanks to a new emergency department affiliation between UPMC Greene and UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh. This pediatric care partnership makes it possible for children to receive expert, timely treatment without the need to travel.
"For parents, this means peace of mind, and for children, it means healing can beginthe moment they walk through the doors of their local hospital," said Brook Ward, president, UPMC Washington and UPMC Greene. "This pediatric care affiliation is more than a clinical upgrade -- it's about improving close-to-home access to advanced care."
Since becoming part of UPMC in 2024, UPMC Washington and UPMC Greene have introduced new health care services that directly benefit patients and families, including expanded specialty care and enhanced emergency capabilities. This pediatric partnership marks another meaningful step in UPMC's broader commitment to community health, specifically addressing the priorities of access to care and navigating resources as outlined in the 2025 Joint Community Health Needs Assessment for UPMC hospitals in Southwest Pa.
Recently, a young patient with a significant arm injury was recently treated at the UPMC Washington emergency department through its new affiliation with UPMC Children's. The child received expert care without delay -- and without leaving the area -- highlighting how vital it is to have world-class pediatric expertise available where families live and seek care.
Now, Greene County families can expect the same level of care. UPMC Greene's emergency department clinicians, trained in pediatric care, can consult 24/7 with board-certified pediatric emergency medicine physicians at UPMC Children's. These real-time consultations provide expert pediatric specialty care guidance and coordinated services for next steps in the patient's care.
Follow-up appointments with more than 400 pediatric specialists across 33 subspecialties can be scheduled before the patient leaves the emergency department, streamlining care and reducing stress during critical moments.
"This affiliation is our commitment to Greene County families," said Diane Hupp, president, UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh. "We're here to support children's health journeys from the emergency room to specialty care -- all while keeping families close to home."
Families in Greene County also benefit from the nearby UPMC Children's Specialty Care Center Washington, located next to the emergency room entrance at UPMC Washington. The center provides access to a broad range of pediatric subspecialists, including cardiology, Down syndrome care, endocrinology, gastroenterology, nephrology, urology and orthopaedics. The center recently expanded its offerings to include rheumatology and neurology, further strengthening the region's pediatric care network.
In addition, Children's Express Care at UPMC Washington offers after-hours and weekend care for minor injuries and illnesses. Staffed by UPMC Children's physicians, the center operates from 5 to 9 p.m., Monday through Friday, and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekends, providing convenient access when families need it most.
"This is about meeting families where they are," said Ward. "We're proud to offer the right care, in the right place, at the right time."

AHRC Condemns Israeli Ceasefire Violations in Lebanon and Gaza, Urges the U.S. to Leash Netanyahu
The American Human Rights Council (AHRC-USA) strongly condemns Israel's ongoing and blatant violations of the ceasefire agreements signed with Lebanon and Gaza. The Israel-Lebanon ceasefire, signed on November 26, 2024, and the Israel-Gaza ceasefire, signed on January 19, 2025, were intended to halt hostilities and protect civilian lives.
Yet Israel has continued deliberate militaryoperations--particularly in southern Lebanon--targeting civilians and destroying residential infrastructure.
Since the signing of the ceasefires, Israel has reportedly committed over 4,500 violations in Lebanon and over 900 violations in Gaza, including airstrikes, drone attacks, and targeted killings. These actions have resulted in hundreds of civilian deaths and widespread destruction, undermining the credibility of the agreements.
These near-daily violations hinder the Lebanese government and army's ability to implement and enforce the ceasefire terms. Israel routinely invokes unfounded accusations to justify its continued aggression, acting with impunity and disregard for international law and ceasefire commitments--including those made to President Trump.
Israel's defiance extends beyond Lebanon. In Gaza, it continues military operations despite the ceasefire, while obstructing the delivery of critical humanitarian aid to Palestinians. Simultaneously, in the West Bank, Israel escalates violence by enabling illegal settlers and extremists to assault Palestinian civilians--including children, women, and the elderly.
AHRC calls on the Trump administration to exert immediate and sustained pressure on Israel to halt its aggression and comply fully with ceasefire obligations in Lebanon and in Gaza. President Trump must honor his pledge to enforce accountability and uphold international agreements. The continued killing of innocent civilians in Gaza and Lebanon constitutes war crimes and must end.
"Despite the administration's claims, the wars in Gaza and in Lebanon are still ongoing," said Imad Hamad, AHRC Executive Director. "We urge President Trump to use his immense leverage to end Israeli aggression in Lebanon and in Gaza," concluded Hamad.
