Lifeline
This week the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) released a report showing Republicans’ plan to repeal the Affordable Care will be nothing less than a nightmare for the American people. If successful in repealing the ACA, health care costs will explode, Americans in the individual market will see their premiums double by 2026, and the number of uninsured Americans will surge by 18 million in the first year alone and by 32 million by 2026.
Republicans need to wake up to the brutal impact that repealing the ACA will have on the lives of their constituents. Behind each of these statistics are stories of millions of Americans whose lives hang in the balance. This past week we honored Dr. Martin Luther King, who once said that "of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane." Let us vow to continue Dr. King's legacy and insure equitable healthcare for all Americans.

While President-elect Trump promises ‘insurance for everybody,’ the Majority in Congress ismoving to destroy the health coverage of tens of millions of Americans and drive up costs for millions more. This plan isn’t repeal and delay, or repeal and replace – it’s cut and run.
