Let’s recap: The 1st Republican amendment, which slashes Medicaid, increases premiums and brings back junk plans was DEFEATED 43-57.
-
It’s good news that this amendment was soundly defeated. It shows there is little support for the bill Republicans have pushed for months.
NEXT: We vote on the 2nd Republican amendment in an hour. It repeals the Affordable Care Act with no replacement. An easy NO vote.

This approach would cause 32 MILLION Americans to lose coverage. Premiums next year would increase by 25% MORE than projected!
-
Democrats will offer an amendment to protect Medicaid and send the bill to committee so we can proceed with an OPEN, bipartisan process.
