(Harrisburg, PA) Four Republican House members, including three representatives from Pennsylvania, joined Democrats yesterday in signing a discharge petition to force a vote to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies. Representatives Brian Fitzpatrick, Rob Bresnahan Jr. and Ryan Mackenzie of Pennsylvania joined New York Representative Mike Lawler against GOP Speaker Mike Johnson to force a vote in early 2026 on a three-year extension of these subsidies, which will expire at the end of this year.
