Trump Wants 32 Million Americans to Lose Health Care

Trump Wants 32 Million Americans to Lose Health Care

“Trump has now called for total repeal of the Affordable Care Act, with no guarantee of any specific replacement later, or even a guarantee that any replacement would ever materialize at all.”

“We can estimate the impact of repealing those things. Indeed, the Congressional Budget Office has already done so, when it analyzed a previous version of a GOP repeal bill over a year ago. And that analysis found that repealing those things would result in 32 million people losing coverage by 2026, 19 million of them people who would lose Medicaid coverage.”

— “Don’t sugarcoat this. Trump just called for 32 million people to lose health coverage.” Greg Sargent, Washington Post
