Page 3 - Implode Obamacare News Today

Against the repeal. you would have thought i would have voted 65 times for or against a replacement. when they had the opportunity to do a replacement they couldnt get it together so i think it was political. i think it was political rhetoric to gin up their base and it was really sad because it misled an awful lot of people. so some of the problems with obamacare is the fact that many states have not extended medicaid and so we do need to come back and maybe now, maybe now they will look at mak...

>> the unity of our house democratic members was a very important message to the country that we are very proud of the affordable care act and the american people expressed their support for it. that message became very clear to our colleagues on the republican side of the aisle. today is a great day for our country. what happened on the floor is a victory for the american people. >> not long after the bill was pilled democratic congressman joe kennedy of massachusetts told me he was very happy ...

Your lives a living hell and they tried to do in the the last 4 hours in a way that hadnt been reported on much but look on what they were going to vote on today and they couldnt get enough republicans to vote for this hateful mean-spirited bill. so now the resistance has to step forward. we need to do two things, chris. number one we need to push for single payer insurance, medicare for all, the kind the canadians have, the kind that every other civilized democracy on the planet has. we have to...

E.r. visits, well cut out maternity and paid rheediatric how about that? no, no, we wont vote for it. so please understand that the republicans, and im talking to the people in michigan who voted for trump, especially those of you who voted for obama and then changed an voted for trump, these people are out to make your lives a living hell and they tried to do in the the last 4 hours in a way that hadnt been reported on much but look on what they were going to vote on today and they couldnt get ...

Cut at hhs. theyre going do everything they can to stymie and get in the way of the good that obamacare does. thats why bernie and the other progressive leaders of this party who i believe now represent the majority of the party, have to get out there and push for the real fix. if we dont fix obamacare in the way it should be fixed, in the way i think president obama probably would agree it should be fixed, we are going to get hit really hard and the people we say we support, the people, the wor...

Achieve what has been their single biggest goal for the past seven years and the number-one agenda item of donald trumps presidency. minutes before it was due for a vote today, house republicans, led by speaker paul ryan, pulled the bill that would have repealed and replaced the affordable care act after it became obvious they lacked the votes within their own caucus. despite a pressure campaign by the white house and an ultimatum directly from the president himself at least 34 gop members came ...

Telling you the truth when he says that obamacare is going to explode or implode depending on which side of his brain hes listening to. it will do one of those things because they are going to actively make sure that that happens. they and the profit-making insurance companies are going to make sure it explodes. so that means the resistance -- >> this is a worrisome scenario, right? the death by sabotage because you now have tom price who is probably one of the most committed foes of obamacare w...
