Transcripts For CSPAN 20170920

Programs. Health program and faa programs are set to expire september 30. Speaking of the new Health Care Bill, President Trump spoke about an early today. Thank you very much. Will you restart aid to egypt . Is grahamcassidy going to pass . Good chance. Has a obamacare is a disaster, it is failing badly. You look at the rates, look at whats happening for premiums, they cannot afford obamacare, its been a catastrophic situation. I believe the grahamcassidy bill will do it the right way. There is tremendous support from republicans, certainly, we are 47 or 48 senators, others are looking at it positively. President knows health care, loves it. He might even want to say a few words about it. President trump made a commitment to the people that we would repeal and replace obamacare. Senator graham, senator cassidy are coming together to keep a promise to the american people. The president has said many times obamacare is collapsing. American families and american businesses are very the burden. This president and the administration is absolutely committed to support grahamcassidy, move for legislation, and give people a fresh start on health care reform, not with government mandates, but repealing the mandates on his nieces and individuals and giving the resources to the states to create Health Care Solutions that will work for each individual state. For seven years, ive been hearing repeal and replace obamacare. For seven years, ive been hearing how bad obamacare is. Really, more than in the last two or three years. For seven years, i have heard repeal and replace, how badly we have been together premiums go up, deductibles that have been through the roof you have states like arizona where the agreement will be worse this year than last year and last year there was a 100 increase, 116 . I think there is tremendous support for it, i think it is better than the previous shot, which was very sadly letdown. But again, we have been hearing about repeal and replace for seven years. , i would go to the oval office, sit down at my desk, and there would be a Health Care Bill on my desk, to be honest. And it has not worked out that way. I think a lot of republicans are embarrassed by it. I have to tell you, i think they are going to do a great job, if this happens, it will be a great thing for the country. Obamacare is a disaster, it is a train wreck. And it is only getting worse. I must be honest with you. Whether it happens or not, something is going to happen, and its going to because it. Frankly, obamacare cannot make it. We think this has a very good chance but obamacare is only getting worse. It is dysfunctional now, totally dysfunctional. At some point, we said it is going to be forced and make a deal. We are just about at that point now. Because obamacare is so bad. So i do think it has a very good chance of passage, and i certainly hope it passes. They will be voting in the nottoodistant future. Thank you very much. [indiscernible] thank you very much. The house and Senate Return to session next week and its possible the senate will vote on that latest bill to change health care law.
