Jan 11 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday he might veto legislation to extend federal health insurance subsidies, injecting fresh uncertainty into a debate that has pitted congressional Republicans against Democrats and threatened to raise premiums for millions of Americans.<\/p>\n

Expiration of the health insurance tax breaks at the end of 2025 left millions of Americans facing significant price hikes for coverage.<\/p>\n

The Republican-controlled U.S. House of Representatives on Thursday passed the Democratic-backed legislation that would restore the subsidies to the Affordable Care Act, with 17 Republicans joining Democrats.<\/p>\n

The Senate, which is also controlled by Republicans, has already rejected a similar bill, but House passage could spur a compromise.<\/p>\n

Americans have until January 15 to enroll in ACA coverage for this year, although the Trump administration could extend that deadline.<\/p>\n
