Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would extend the federal health coverage tax credit, which helps certain people pay for health insurance. Under current law, the credit applies only to coverage months beginning before January 1, 2022. The bill would change that date to January 1, 2030. The change would apply to months beginning after December 31, 2021, which means it would also cover the years since the credit ended.
