    Terrible for public health: If I'm correct, Section II also eliminates the ACA's public health funding, cutting $1B of @CDC's $7B budget.https://twitter.com/samstein/status/890752416668405761 …

        This is really bad. @CDC, especially research, is crucial for the protection of all Americans against outbreaks, diseases, viruses, bacteria

        Getting CDC funding is already tough enough. Slash funding and it will be nearly impossible for agencies like mine.

        Oh that's smart, @SenateMajLdr. Cut the @CDCgov budget. Just wait till we get hit with Zika or Ebola. This bill is a healthcare DISASTER.
