Record-high Obamacare enrollment: The numbers behind Biden's health care victory lap
Enrollment for health plans through the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, insurance marketplaces reached a record high during this year's open enrollment period, a feat applauded by President Joe Biden this week.
“I promised to lower costs for families and ensure that all Americans have access to quality, affordable health care,” Biden said in a statement Wednesday. “Today, we received further proof that our efforts are delivering record-breaking results.”
Between November 15 and January 15, more than 16.3 million Americans signed up for a health care plan through the Obamacare marketplace, according to the latest data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). These included more than 12.7 million returning consumers and more than 3.6 million new signups.

According to CMS, Obamacare has seen nearly a 50% increase in enrollment since Biden took office. This includes more than 12.2 million individuals signing up through Healthcare.gov, the federal platform that is available in 33 states, and more than 4.1 million plan selections through state-based marketplaces offered in 17 states and Washington, D.C.

We need to keep reminding people the stark difference between Republicans that want to strip us of beneficial programs to Democrats looking to create more.
A big shout out though to Presidents Obama and Biden as well as those that fought for and passed the ACA!
