As support for Trumpcare continues to plummet (just 12% according to the latest poll), Senate Republicans' failed strategy is to continue to re-release the bill in worse and worse iterations. Now, in a pinch to prove to Americans that Republicans are capable of any major legislative accomplishment, they're plotting to hastily push through a bill which would mean higher costs for less coverage, millions of Americanslosing coverage, and devastating cuts to Medicaid.

When told that ‘people want to know the plan before they vote' Senator John Cornyn responded:

‘That's a luxury we don't have'

It's a ‘luxury' for the American people to know what's in the Senate's cruel bill? Tell that to the millions of American families who will suffer the consequences:

  • 22 to 32 million Americans losing coverage
  • Soaring health care costs for families
  • Millions losing access to Medicaid, including children, veterans and seniors in nursing homes

And all of that just to give a tax break to the wealthy and corporations. While Republicans continue to cram through a mystery bill that Americans want no part of, Democrats are committed to turning up the heat to stop the immoral attacks on the health care of American families.
