Vice President Kamala Harris expressed strong disapproval of recent statements made by House Speaker Mike Johnson regarding the Affordable Care Act and the CHIPS Act. Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, has been vocal about his desire for significant changes to the Affordable Care Act and has advocated against the CHIPS Act, a semiconductor chip manufacturing package supported by President Joe Biden.
Johnson's remarks included calls for 'massive reform' of the Affordable Care Act and a pledge to repeal it if Republicans regain control of the White House. He also suggested that Republicans would attempt to repeal the CHIPS Act if they controlled Congress and former President Donald Trump returned to office, although he later backtracked on this statement.
