--ALL STATES: If you're eligible for Medicaid or CHIP, you can enroll *year-round*
📣
MASSACHUSETTS: If you earn less than 300% FPL, you're eligible for ConnectorCare year-round

MINNESOTA: If you earn less than 200% FPL, you're eligible for MinnesotaCare year-round

NEW YORK: If you earn less than 200% FPL, you're eligible for the Essential Plan year-round
📣 ALL STATES: If you have a Qualifying Life Experience (QLE) such as losing existing coverage, moving, getting married/divorced, giving birth/adopting, getting out of jail or the military or turning 26 years old, you're eligible for a 60-day Special Enrollment Period (SEP).
FINALLY, @LouiseNorris notes that some people not fitting into ANY of the above *may still be able to enroll* for 2021 coverage due to FEMA emergency declarations:

Here's a summary of the 2021 #ACA Open Enrollment deadlines for every state:
As an aside: If you find my work at ACASignups useful *and are in a position to do so*, consider being a one-time or recurring supporter, thanks!

ADDITIONAL:

📣 MAKE SURE YOU'RE ENROLLING IN ACA-COMPLIANT COVERAGE!

Under Trump, scam sites have run rampant, as have sites selling junk plans side-by-side w/#ACA plans. Stick w/the official links above *or* brokers who *only* offer ACA plans (& which list all of them).
📣 THE INDIVIDUAL MANDATE PENALTY IS STILL AROUND IN SEVERAL STATES!

The federal mandate penalty may be gone, but CA, DC, MA, NJ & RI have all reinstated it at the state level for those who don't receive an exemption.
📣 YOU MAY QUALIFY FOR TAX CREDITS IN 2021 EVEN IF YOU DIDN'T IN 2020...POTENTIALLY SAVING YOU *THOUSANDS* OF DOLLARS.

Due to how #ACA subsidies work, you could save thousands of dollars next year even if nothing changes at your end. ALWAYS CHECK TO SEE IF YOU MAY BE ELIGIBLE!
📣 RESIDENTS OF SOME STATES MAY QUALIFY FOR *ADDITIONAL* SUBSIDIES AS WELL!

California, Massachusetts, New Jersey & Vermont offer *additional* financial subsidies on top of the federal subsidies to many #ACA enrollees.
📣 MILLIONS OF PEOPLE QUALIFY FOR *ZERO-PREMIUM* BRONZE OR EVEN *GOLD* PLANS!

It's a long, dumb story, but some people may be eligible for enough subsidies to bring their net premiums down to $0 (or only a few dollars)...including many who you might not expect would qualify.
📣 ONE MORE THING: Don't let concerns about the upcoming Supreme Court decision on the #ACA case scare you off from enrolling!

Even in a worst-case scenario, the ruling isn't expected until April at the earliest. 5-6 months of coverage is still better than 0 months! #GetCovered.

📣 Tonight is Christmas Eve, so here's a thread about a so-called "Christian Health Sharing Ministry" which dives into Inception-level surreality. 1/
"Health Sharing Ministries" (usually offered by "Christian" organizations but occasionally via non-Christian groups) are promoted as an alternative to actual health insurance policies. They've become much more popular since the #ACA became law because they're less expensive. 2/
HOWEVER, there's some REASONS why they're less expensive than #ACA-compliant policies:

"Although HCSMs are not insurance & DO NOT GUARANTEE PAYMENT OF CLAIMS, their features closely mimic traditional insurance products, possibly confusing consumers." 3/

Yesterday, @SenSanders stated that "every M4All co-sponsor up for re-election beat their Republican opponent."

This is technically correct, but there's quite a bit more to the story... acasignups.net/20/12/23/sen-s…
The Senate M4All bill has 15 sponsors total. 9 were up for re-election in 2018 or 2020.

8 represent blue states.
1 represents a swing state (Sen. Baldwin).

She openly promotes M4All...but also states she's open to any other healthcare bills if they can find "common ground." 2/
The House M4All bill has 119 sponsors total. 4 left office for one reason or another; 115 were indeed re-elected.

106 represent districts which are D+5 or bluer.

Of the 9 who aren't, only 2 of them (Porter CA-45 and Hayes CT-05) *openly promote* their support of M4All. 3/

Trump just pardoned war criminals and has offered to pay the legal fees for his supporters who beat up protesters. What’s to stop him from openly telling his domestic terrorist base to follow through with their threats, have them charged in federal court and then pardoning them?
He’s still in office for 27 more days thanks to the GOP Senate, Barr just left leaving an even BIGGER Trump sycophant in charge of the DoJ for the next 4 weeks...while the public is distracted by Christmas, New Year’s & a mountain of COVID deaths.
Several have noted that his pardon won’t help with state charges...but some of THEM won’t know that. I suspect that’s why he’s floating pardoning Rittenhouse. He’s been told he can’t—but his base may hear about it and assume he can.

.@SenSanders is technically correct, but there's a bit more to the story...
acasignups.net/20/12/23/sen-s…
I decided to check into this. I found that only 1 Senator (Tammy Baldwin of WI) and 2 House members (Katie Porter of CA-45 and Johana Hayes of CT-05) *represent a swing state/district* AND openly/loudly state their support of "pure" M4All on their campaign websites.

Last night I was willing to give her the benefit of the doubt that she was just making a snarky joke.
But let’s suppose she was correct and but let’s suppose she was correct, and the President really did have the power to institute M4All immediately via XO. In one fell swoop, millions of legal contracts between carriers & providers, carriers & employers become null & void.
Doctors and hospitals, many of which are already on the verge of closing, suddenly see their revenue plummet by ~40% or so. Abortion suddenly has to be paid for 100% out of pocket by every woman in America who wants one.

What’s the partisan lean of each of those districts?
Update: I answered my own question. The average partisan lean of all 116 districts where the sitting House Dem is a M4All cosponsor is D+19 according to @CookPolitical.
There are only 13 districts among those which are D+5 or worse.
