President Biden is expected to sign executive orders Thursday aimed at getting more Americans signed up for health care by reopening the federal Health Insurance Marketplace during a special enrollment period of the Affordable Care Act.
Regular enrollment through Healthcare.gov is usually the last six weeks of each year and the special enrollment period will run from February through May, the White House said in a release.
The order is part of a campaign promise Biden repeatedly made during the election to expand access to ObamaCare.
"For President Biden, this is personal," the release said. "He believes that every American has a right to the peace of mind that comes with knowing they have access to affordable, quality health care."
It would come as many Americans have lost their health insurance because of job losses during the coronavirus pandemic.
The Biden administration said in the release the orders also aim to strengthen ObamaCare, Medicare and access to reproductive health care in repudiation of "four years of attempts" by the Trump administration and Republicans to "strip health care from millions of Americans" through their attempts to repeal Obamacare.
Republicans unsuccessfully attempted to repeal ObamaCare and replace it with a conservative plan during Trump's presidency.
The executive orders will be the latest in a series of actions meant to quickly roll back former President Trump’s efforts while in office.

Trump signed what three or four executive orders his first two weeks, this fraud is up to what? 35 or 40?
This is considered Normalcy to the Marxists.
ROFLOL. People have known about Obamacare for years. The exchanges were mostly an enormous money suck and failure. By all means, expand enrollment time because your destroying jobs and their health care benefits faster than people can sign up for it.
For those who never got it, Obamacare was an INSURANCE INDUSTRY bailout, disguised as a health care plan. Rates skyrocketed on the back of working people.
By the way Joe Biden, you should undue Trumps policy and re-establish the mandate to float it all a bit longer.
I want the healthcare insurance that I had before the government started fixing it. It was cheap and it was good.
The folks didn’t choose to sign up in November and December, why would they sign up now?
Just another grandstand play to show “I’m doing something.”
Turd Term
Joe's one hell of a hipocryte.
REALITY CHECK: Biden's mother forced him to kiss his dead grandmother which resulted in
Biden's blinding headaches, occasional blackouts and dissociative identity disorder (AKA multiple personalities)
<><> Biden's personna include a timid, Mr Peepers-type.
<><> In the Oval Office w/ a pen in his hand, he becomes Ivan The Terrible.
<><> In a family setting, he's the kindly, understanding "Father Knows Best."
Biden can’t remember what he had for breakfast this morning. How can he remember what he said last October?
Yep, some article was pointing that out the other day. Trump signed like 5, Obama 4, Bush 5 ....Biden THIRTY in 4 days!! What that tells me is this brain dead idiot is signing anything they push in front of him.
That’s nice of him since he is personally and directly responsible for MILLIONS of people losing their health insurance along with their jobs.
moron
Michigan’s Whitler is proof of EO idiocy.
He only says what Nanzi, Xi, and Obama tell him to say.
He has become a dictator.
Why doesn’t he just recess Congress and be done with it?
We’re a week in and he’s closing in on 40 EOs now.
Chairman Jao is a dictator plain and simple.
Yep, I lost my health insurance because of that idiot. I drive a rig interstate and was buying my own insurance and good old Obamacare raised it to $750 a month from $432 and that was it for me, impossible to afford, so much for the “affordable” care act. That’s about 10 years so far I’ve gone without health insurance
OCTOBER, November & December. I just got ready to watch SOME channels again.
