olks, this is what's at stake in the next election. Last week, Senator Lindsey Graham admitted that Trump and Republicans in Congress plan to completely repeal the Affordable Care Act in 2021. If the law is repealed an estimated 20 million Americans would lose coverage -- many of whom live in states that voted for Trump.
Here's the bottom-line: For nearly a decade, Republicans in Congress have pledged to repeal the Affordable Care Act, but have yet to offer any alternative that would ensure health care for the American people. Their only goal has always been to boost the profits of insurance companies. What do you think?
