    Bottom-line, this is a #taxform bill that works for Alaska & this nation. It gets dollars in pockets & relief to families. It restores competition in the global marketplace, certainty to job creators, and confidence that now is the time to invest in Alaska & the rest of America.

        "By operation of law" is a bit of legal jargon that means "automatically." Something called PAYGO will require massive cuts to federal spending to pay for the tax cuts. 2/

        It will cut 4% of Medicare spending (because that's the most that can, by law, be cut). $25 Billion in cuts the first year. $400+ Billion in cuts over the decade. The healthcare system isn't designed to take a shock like that – there's not enough slack. 3/

        The #GOPTaxPlan will also end the individual mandate. You remember all the health policy wonks talking about a 3-legged stool? This will saw off one of the legs while sick Americans try to hang on for dear life. The individual market will be thrown into a death spiral. 4/

        more and more patients will be uninsured. Hopkins, MGH, Mayo – they'll all survive. You're going to be squeezed for RVUs, but your hospital won't go under. But rural hospitals that are barely keeping the lights on right now? Many of them will shutter. 6/
