Strengthening Health
This is just the latest example of President Trump and Republicans in Congress’s obsession with undermining the health and well-being of the American people. In refusing to follow bipartisan tradition and defend the ACA in the U.S. federal court system, the Trump Administration is nakedly admitting that it wants to eliminate protections for people with pre-existing conditions, breaking a promise that the president has made time and again.
This frivolous attack, on what even Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) has called the law of the land, builds on the Administration and Congress’s track record of deliberately injecting uncertainty into the insurance markets and increasing costs for the American people.
