Don't forget: President Trump canceled payments for the cost-sharing program, which reduces premiums and out-of-pocket expenses for low-income Americans.

Meanwhile, Republicans in Congress repealed the health care coverage requirement, which the
@USCBO predicted would raise premiums by 10% more each year than they would otherwise be and result in millions of more people without insurance.Show this thread -
And right now, the Trump Admin is finalizing a rule to expand the availability of
#junkplans that would force higher premiums for ppl w/ pre-existing conditions, impose an “age tax” on seniors & once again could subject Americans to the devastating effects of medical bankruptcy.Show this thread -
All for the sake of a political vendetta, Republicans have sabotaged & destabilized our healthcare system so severely that
#Trumpcare is already heralding double-digit premium increases in states across the country.Show this thread

Thank you Senator Schumer for reminding us about the GOP’s sabotage of the nation’s health care system.

Obamacare ruined health care.
-
Obamacare saved my daughter’s life. Her third round with cancer was covered 100%. Prior to Obamacare she was uninsurable. How is that ruined? Now we’re once again dancing around whether or not she’ll be covered once they mandate high risk pools. How is that not ruined?

I remember well the ‘free market’ healthcare by insurance co’s. Before the ACA, my monthly premium was $750 in 2008. In 2008 almost 50% of bankruptcies were healthcare cost related. America has a short memory.

And we’ll be headed back there sooner than most people think. Medical bills are still the largest driver of individual bankruptcies.https://www.fool.com/retirement/2017/05/01/this-is-the-no-1-reason-americans-file-for-bankrup.aspx …

That’s why I posted this. Bankruptcies b/c of healthcare cost are back in the news.

Whats your point? So what is the solution? What would be your utopia in Healthcare?
-
Single-payer healthcare. I'd rather my taxes go to saving my neighbors kid with cancer for helping them afford their medications rather than have my taxes go towards funding another war. But that's just me personally.

what do you all care.. you all have top-notch coverage.. meanwhile I'm hobbling around, at 54, with no cartilage in my hips, cause I can't afford surgery. good on you.
-
Your story and others like it are what the Dems should focus on. The message can't be all anti trump. It needs to be single payer for everyone. Every American is entitled to the medical care they need.
-
before the
#taxscam my office visit co-pay was 35 dollars.. now, it's 90. who's fault us that? my deductible went from $2000, to $4500. -
I understand it is the fault of trump and the GOP. Most rational people do. What people need to know is what Democrats are going to do to fix this situation for you. I am so sorry you are going through this.
-
no. congress passed the
#taxscam bill.. one of the things attached to that bill, was to kill the mandate requiring people, and companies to sign up for health insurance. because it's no longer a mandate, insurance companies increased the cost of coverage to offset the loss. - 1 more reply

Schumer all you do is LIE. You (dims) have blocked everything that he tries to do.
-
How can they block without a majority?

Don't bother
