The three-year extension of the subsidy is being pitched by Senate Democrats, but it is not expected to pass.<\/p>\n<p>The CBO also estimates that enacting the Democratic plan would increase the number of people with health insurance by about 400,000 next year, 3 million in 2027 and 4 million in 2028.<\/p>\n<p>Gross premiums, the amount consumers would pay before a tax credit is applied, have already been set for 2026. But CBO says they would fall by 5.7% in 2027 and 9% in 2028, because people who enroll in ACA plans would be healthier than they would be without the extension.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>          <\/bsp-liveblog-post> <bsp-liveblog-post data-gtm-region=\"<b>A refresher on Trump\u2019s takeover of the California National Guard<\/b>&#8221; data-post-id=&#8221;0000019b-08da-ddb9-a9bf-9afa0a420000&#8243; data-posted-date-timestamp=&#8221;1765381856592&#8243; data-seconds-delta-text=&#8221;sec ago&#8221; data-minutes-delta-text=&#8221;min ago&#8221; data-hours-delta-text=&#8221;h ago&#8221;>              <a id=\"0000019b-08da-ddb9-a9bf-9afa0a420000\"><\/a>                          <\/p>\n<h2>             <b>A refresher on Trump\u2019s takeover of the California National Guard<\/b>         <\/h2>\n<div>\n<div data-override-title=\"true\" data-hide-title=\"false\" data-align-center data-carousel-enhancement>                              <bsp-carousel data-module data-slidesratio=\"3x2\">                      <a id=\"gallery-080001\"><\/a>       <\/p>\n<div data-slidescount=\"3\">\n<div data-slidenumber=\"0\">         <bsp-carousel-read-more data-expand=\"ReadMore-expand\" data-main-class=\"ReadMore\" data-more-id=\"data-more-button-0\" data-less-id=\"data-less-button-0\" data-carousel-readmore-status=\"unstarted\">             <\/p>\n<p><span>1 of 3<span>\u00a0|\u00a0<\/span><\/span>             <span><\/p>\n<p>Protesters stand off against California National Guard soldiers at the Federal Building in downtown Los Angeles during a \u201cNo Kings\u201d protest on Saturday, June 14, 2025.

He put the decision on hold until Monday.<\/p>\n<p>California argued that conditions in Los Angeles had changed since Trump first took command of the troops and deployed them in June. The administration initially called up more than 4,000 California National Guard troops. By late October, only a 100 or so remained in the Los Angeles area. Justice Department lawyers said they are still needed to protect federal personnel and property.<\/p>\n<p>The Republican administration extended the deployment until February while also trying to use California Guard members in Portland, Oregon. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>          <\/bsp-liveblog-post> <bsp-liveblog-post data-gtm-region=\"JUST IN: Federal judge orders Trump administration to end deployment of California National Guard troops in Los Angeles\" data-post-id=\"0000019b-08d2-d62c-afdb-3afb542b0000\" data-posted-date-timestamp=\"1765379634777\" data-seconds-delta-text=\"sec ago\" data-minutes-delta-text=\"min ago\" data-hours-delta-text=\"h ago\">              <a id=\"0000019b-08d2-d62c-afdb-3afb542b0000\"><\/a>                          <\/p>\n<h2>             JUST IN: Federal judge orders Trump administration to end deployment of California National Guard troops in Los Angeles         <\/h2>\n<p>                                        <\/bsp-liveblog-post> <bsp-liveblog-post data-gtm-region=\"3rd judge grants Justice Department request to unseal records from Epstein\u2019s 2019 sex trafficking case\" data-post-id=\"0000019b-08ca-d53b-ab9f-3eeed70f0000\" data-posted-date-timestamp=\"1765379482954\" data-seconds-delta-text=\"sec ago\" data-minutes-delta-text=\"min ago\" data-hours-delta-text=\"h ago\">              <a id=\"0000019b-08ca-d53b-ab9f-3eeed70f0000\"><\/a>                          <\/p>\n<h2>             3rd judge grants Justice Department request to unseal records from Epstein\u2019s 2019 sex trafficking case         <\/h2>\n<div>\n<p>Secret grand jury transcripts from <span><a data-gtm-enhancement-style=\"LinkEnhancementA\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/jeffrey-epstein\">Jeffrey Epstein\u2019s 2019 sex trafficking case<\/a><\/span> can be made public, a judge ruled Wednesday, joining two other judges in granting the requests involving investigations into the late financier\u2019s sexual abuse.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. District Judge Richard M.
