Extra subsidies put in place during the pandemic reduced the premiums Muralles and her husband paid by more than half , to $ 30 a month.

The Congressional Budget Office estimates that letting the enhanced subsidies expire would, by 2034 , increase the number of people without health insurance by 4.2 million .

The enhanced tax credits do not expire until the end of the year .

The CBO says extending them would increase the federal deficit by about $2.4 trillion over the next decade .

A conservative health policy think tank says the subsidies facilitated fraud.

Without the subsidies, consumers will turn to short-term health plans, health care advocates say.
