  • Total number of people receiving federal tax credits via the 34 states at risk of losing them due to King v. Burwell: 6.5 million
  • Total likely to lose healthcare coverage as a result of adverse KvB ruling: Appx. 8.5 million
  • According to the Census Bureau, in 2012 there were appx. 70.1 million fathers in the U.S. out of around 314 million people total, or 22.3% of the population.
