A bipartisan group of House moderates unveiled a proposal Monday to extend Affordable Care Act (ACA) tax credits for two years, aiming to break the stalemate that has kept the government shut down for over a month.

The plan would phase out eligibility for households earning $200,000–$400,000, introduce income verification, strengthen fraud prevention, and increase transparency on the value of tax credits.

Lawmakers behind the plan—including Reps. Don Bacon, Tom Suozzi, Jeff Hurd, and Josh Gottheimer—framed it as a “fair, reasonable path forward” that demonstrates compromise is possible.

Some Democrats and Republicans are openly frustrated with their party leadership’s refusal to negotiate, particularly on the stopgap spending measures and ACA credits, Axios has reported.

House leadership has not dismissed the ideas, and GOP officials indicated they were already considering measures like income caps and verification.
