PA-GOV: Pennsylvania governor candidate Stacy Garrity says GOP was correct to let health care tax credits expire
Stacy Garrity, the Republican frontrunner in Pennsylvania’s 2026 gubernatorial race, says congressional Republicans were “absolutely correct” to let the premium tax credits for the Affordable Care Act (ACA) expire.
Garrity made the comments during a Christmas party with the Monroe Council of Republican women on Dec. 17, 2025, weeks after Republicans in Congress decided to allow the tax credits to expire and increase health care costs for millions of Americans. According to audio provided to Heartland Signal, after an audience member asked for her thoughts about health care, Garrity said that her party is going “down the right path to fix it” and that they will solve the health care crisis.
“So I think they’re going down the right path to fix it. I think that’s absolutely the right thing to do,” Garrity said. “Don’t give money to the insurance companies. Give it to the people. I mean, I get it. But, so I think I have 100% confidence that Republicans are going to solve this, and they’re starting to go down the right path. We just need a little bit more time.”
Garrity’s campaign did not respond to requests to comment for this story.
