Vermont’s U.S. Senator Patrick Leahy: Trumpcare fails every test

The Congressional Budget Office just released their report on the House-passed Trumpcare bill, and it confirms how egregious and damaging this legislation would be for the American people. Over ten years, Trumpcare would take away insurance coverage from 23 million people. For Americans lucky enough to stay insured, Trumpcare would pile on thousands of dollars of out-of-pocket charges for individuals and families who need maternity care, opioid addiction treatment, and mental health services in states that use waivers. Millions with pre-existing conditions will lose coverage. From the bumbled beginning through every horrifying twist and turn, Trumpcare has never been about expanding access to care: It is a massive tax cut for the rich, disguised as a health plan. Trumpcare fails every test -- it should never be foisted on the American people. Add your name to join me in calling on Senate Republicans to work with Democrats to improve the Affordable Care Act and scrap this abomination of a health care bill. Thank you for taking action today. Sincerely, Patrick Leahy U.S. Senator ADD YOUR NAME » Contributions or gifts to Leahy for U.S. Senator Committee, Inc. are not tax deductible.
