Just last month, we celebrated six years since ACA's enactment and celebrated the 20 million previously uninsured Americans who now have access to quality, affordable coverage.
But it was interesting to me that the same arguments that I hear my friends on the other side of the aisle that businesses will close and things will go to hell just didn't pan out.
In 2009, prior to ACA, 40 percent of the families in my congressional district were uninsured. Today, in 2016, only 20 percent are uninsured.
In the last 4 years we have shown great improvement in graduation rates, in enrollment in higher education, and graduation, even, at the colleges.
