This latest Republican offer to gut the Affordable Healthcare Act has been called a sneak attack. The GOP intend to push it through to a vote on September 30, with out discussing its potential effects, but what’s the point of discussing it?

“The Graham-Cassidy bill preys on underserved communities … a clear and present danger”~The National Institute for Reproductive Health
“Graham-Cassidy would devastate the Medicaid program, increase out-of-pocket costs, and weaken or eliminate protections for people living with pre-existing conditions.” ~ American Public Health Association
“It could disrupt access to health care for millions of the more than 70 million Americans” ~Federation of American Hospitals
“This bill harms our most vulnerable patients”~The American Psychiatric Association
The following institutions are vehemently opposed to the Graham/Cassidy proposal:
- American Medical Association
- The American Psychiatric Association
- The American Public Health Association
- The National Institute for Reproductive Health
- Federation of American Hospitals
- AARP
- American Academy of Pediatrics,
- Association of American Medical Colleges,
- American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists,
- Every one of the 50 Medicaid directors who represent the 50 states…(a consensus.)
- and so on…
