This bill sets health care for the American people even back further. And what it is, it's a return to all the failed plans they've had in the past where people pay a lot of money for very little coverage. And many things are just not included.When we saw similar plans in 2017, there was no maternity care coverage. There was no addiction services for people. very limited mental health, sort of the the things that people need for their families.And what it really was saying is we are going to ignore the enti ...

whole lot of drama in that building to end the year and a lot of it over health care, specifically these expiring affordable care act subsidies that as of now look like they're going to lapse. That means a spike in health care premiums for millions of Americans and an assurance that this issue is going to remain top of mind not just for voters but also for lawmakers heading into next year. Let me just talk to you about what happened the other day because it was wild.Four Republicans from pretty vulnerable d ...

Uh, thank you very much for joining us, Senator.Can you give us a rundown on on what you heard today. >> Well, I heard a lot of chest thumping, but not a lot of answers to the questions that I still have. And I uh would have to agree with the discussion you're having right now, which is I think the president is trying to lead us into yet another forever war that Ameri ...

22 million Americans who get their health care from the ACA are about to see dramatic increases in what the premiums will cost. And I mean dramatic increases. The average person's going to be paying double what they paid before. On average, doubling. Now, to be clear, the reason those costs are about to skyrocket is not because of, you know, inflation or some new unforeseen problem in our health care system. This is an entirely man-made problem. This actually it is entirely a Republicanmade crisis. This is ...

Time is running out for Congress to nail down a plan on health care for more than 20 million Americans enrolled in Obamacare. House Republicans announcing their plan last night to resolve the crisis, but it faces stiff opposition over not including an ACA tax credit extension. President Trump shared his thoughts as well yesterday, which only added to the confusion and uncertainty.What's your message to those 24 million Americans who will see their insurance premiums go up. >> Don't make it sound so bad beca ...

Today, the Senate failed to pass two health care proposals. First, a Republican plan, then a Democratic plan, both dead on arrival. Now, if Congress can't agree on a plan, monthly health care premiums will more than double on average for some 22 million Americans as Obamacare subsidies expire at the end of the month.Many of those Americans will simply no longer be able to afford health care. While this is on its face a fight between Democrats and Republicans and the specifics of a plan in Congress right now ...

Majority Leader John Thune said senators will vote on a Republican measure that would allow ACA tax credits to expire and fund health savings accounts alongside a Democratic proposal that would extend the funds for three years, preventing premium hikes. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called the Democratic plan the "only realis ...
