New Jersey health officials warn that insurance premiums could rise sharply if federal premium tax credits expire, reports NJ Spotlight News. A family of four earning less than $131,400 could pay nearly $20,000 more annually without the subsidies. Currently, these credits help half of marketplace enrollees pay $10 or less each month. More than 200,000 residents pay $1 or less. Without congressional action, the expanded credits will expire at the end of 2025.
