The Congressional Budget Office, whose director was hand-picked by Speaker Paul
Ryan, just released its estimates on the impact of the Trump/Ryan health care
proposal. These numbers are a terrifying confirmation that Trumpcare is the
first part of a Republican war on seniors.
If implemented, the CBO estimates that Trumpcare would cause 24 million people
to lose health insurance in the next decade, and premiums would rise 120-125
percent for older adults just below Medicare eligibility age.
Five Republican Senators already stated that they had reservations about voting
for Trumpcare. If they all vote no, this bill will fail in the Senate. Send
them a message now!
Sens. Rob Portman (OH), Shelley Moore Capito (WV), Cory Gardner (CO), and Lisa
Murkowski (AK) sent a letter to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell
signaling their reservations about Trumpcare. And Sen. Dean Heller (NV) told
his constituents over the weekend that he had numerous objections to the bill.
We can stop this in the Senate!
Send a message to the Senate: Vote NO on Trumpcare!
The CBO says that if Trumpcare passes, 14 million Americans would lose their
coverage next year--a number that would climb to 24 million by 2026. All so
that Paul Ryan and Donald Trump can raid $275 billion from Medicare to give
huge tax breaks to the rich. That is insane.
The CBO says that this increase in people without insurance would be
“disproportionately larger among older people with lower income; in particular
people between 50 and 64 years old.”
Five Senators can stop Trumpcare in its tracks. Add your voice!
