Yes, it is California, not Texas, but whether you qualify for the subsidy is the same in all states. Also Kaiser has a similar tool

In general, the Modified Adjusted Income rules are as follows:

To get a subsidy, the couple's modified adjusted gross income for 2014 income would need to fall below $62,040, which is 400 percent of poverty for a family of two. (For a single person, the cutoff is $45,960. For other size households, see www.tinyurl.com/pwugnus.)
