But it has made a world of difference for those millions of Americans who were once denied coverage or couldn't afford it.

We really should all put our heads together on both sides of the aisle and do some commonsense fixing.

The majority seems to be more intent on trying to get us to repeal it 62 or 63 times, which really wastes everybody's time.
