Political Quotes

“Once again, Senate Republicans are trying to pass a healthcare bill without serious hearings or a proper CBO score. But the process is not the only issue with this proposed legislation. The Graham-Cassidy bill would allow States to end critical consumer protections established in law by the Affordable Care Act. These protections ensure that patients with preexisting conditions can access affordable coverage and won't face lifetime caps that force families to choose between lifesaving care and bankruptcy. Regardless of whether you receive insurance through your employer or the individual market, this bill, the Graham-Cassidy bill, endangers access to quality, affordable health coverage for every American. Senators have proposed changes to this bill, but they cannot change the underlying fact that it would be unconscionable to rip healthcare away from more than 32 million Americans. I implore the Senate to reject this legislation, and I urge my colleagues to work in a bipartisan manner to reduce costs and expand coverage. ____________________”
