Mr. Speaker, TrumpCare--a total disaster for America. Here it is by the numbers, per our own nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office: 24 million Americans will lose coverage, with 14 million Americans losing coverage in year one; 15 to 20 percent increases in health insurance premiums in year one; and if you are paying $1,700, you will be paying $14,600 in premium increases if you are a 64-year- old making $26,500 per year. But where does the money go? $592 billion in tax cuts for the rich. That is where it is going. The conclusions: TrumpCare robs health care from American working families to give tax cuts to the rich. So vote ``no'' on TrumpCare to vote ``yes'' on health care for America's working families. ____________________
