Diana DeGette: “Has anything of value been achieved through these efforts? Have we actually changed or modified the Affordable Care Act…”

All of these radicals who are coming to the House, thinking they’re going to be able to pass a very broad bill like Medicare-for-All right away, they’re going to run into a brick wall immediately.

If I could pass Medicare-for-All unilaterally in the minority, I would do it, because I’m an original co-sponsor of that bill. But the frustration people are feeling is with the whole system.

The government should never have the right to use health insurance coverage as a targeted weapon, should never deliberately strip certain people of the freedom to make their own medical decisions.

I have emphasized my efforts to fight Trump and his 'MAGA Republican' allies and protect access to abortion.
