Sorry, Alaska

Start your day with TPM.

You have to see this eye-popping chart from the Center for Budget and Policy Priorities analysis of the difference in subsidies between the ACA and the Ryan/House plan, i.e., TrumpCare.

This is the average difference in credits in 2020 for people buying insurance in marketplaces/exchanges under Obamacare and Ryan/GOP/Trumpcare. The big difference illustrated here is that in addition to making it dramatically harder to buy insurance, Trumpcare doesn’t factor in how costs vary from state to state.

So if you’re from Alaska, you’re screwed bigly – and pretty much everywhere else too, but a bit less.
