Millie Haas

Millie Haas is a 58-year-old resident of Okeechobee, Florida, who is battling three types of cancer and a neurological condition. She and her retired maintenance worker husband rely on affordable health insurance provided through the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare). The enhanced federal subsidies that lower their monthly premium to $124 are crucial for accessing the medical care she needs, as she faces significant out-of-pocket expenses. Recently, Haas has been in the news due to concerns over the impending expiration of enhanced subsidies, which could drastically increase healthcare costs for her and millions of others, emphasizing the urgent need for legislative action to extend these benefits.
