Trump says he does not want to extend Obamacare subsidies

ABOARD AIR FORCE ONE (Reuters) -President Donald Trump said on Friday he does not want to extend Obamacare subsidies after reports surfaced that he was preparing a health-policy framework to extend Affordable Care Act insurance premium subsidies for two years.

Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One as he flew to Florida for the Thanksgiving holiday, Trump made clear he opposed such a move, buckling to pressure from Republican lawmakers who are against it.
