Welp. In a development which should surprise absolutely no one, GOP House Speaker Mike Johnson has announced that the bipartisan "Fitzpatrick Bill" which would include a 2-year extension of the enhanced ACA tax credits (albeit with significant caveats) won't be included in their healthcare bill vote this week after all.

Via Politico:

Speaker Mike Johnson confirmed Tuesday he will not allow a House vote this week to extend expiring Obamacare subsidies — a reversal from last week when a GOP leadership aide said the process “would allow” for an amendment vote.

“In the end, there was not an agreement,” Johnson told reporters, noting the divides in his conference over the subsidies.
