Americans in swing states are seeing big health care savings thanks to President Biden and Congressional Democrats. Since President Biden took office, one of his top priorities has been delivering health care savings for the American people. Through the American Rescue Plan and the Inflation Reduction Act, Democrats expanded the Affordable Care Act’s premium cost caps and capped seniors’ monthly insulin costs at $35 a month. Additionally, they will limit seniors’ out-of-pocket drug costs at $2,000 a year by 2025.

Below, we show how these policies are impacting Americans in swing states:
