Trump Ramps Up Campaign to Destroy Americans' Health Care

The American people have rejected Trumpcare again and again, but President Trump won't be persuaded to strengthen the Affordable Care Act and ensure millions of Americans continue to have access to quality, affordable coverage.  With a quick flourish of his pen, President Trump is doubling down on his efforts to sabotage the ACA – singlehandedly hiking health premiums with his executive actions less than 3 weeks before open enrollment starts on November 1. 

Editorial boards reject President Trump's spiteful sabotage of the Affordable Care Act that will push Americans into paying for junk insurance with few protections and little coverage while raising premiums on Americans with pre-existing conditions.
