What is this bill?

ACA Family Glitch fix legislation in the 119th Congress. The IRS issued a regulatory fix in 2022 that addressed the long-documented “family glitch” (employees with affordable self-only employer coverage but unaffordable family coverage previously couldn’t access ACA marketplace subsidies for their families). Current legislation codifies the regulatory fix.

What does it actually do?

• Codifies 2022 IRS regulatory fix into statute
• Strengthens family-coverage affordability test
• Clarifies enrollment-period transitions for family-glitch-affected households
• Addresses auto-enrollment provisions

How does this affect cooperative-class families?
