The unprecedented healthcare cuts that President Donald Trump and the Republican Party enacted last summer have impacted people in all 50 US states, stripping insurance coverage from around 8 million Americans total and wreaking havoc on hospitals and other providers nationwide.
The advocacy group Protect Our Care on Tuesday released state-by-state fact sheets detailing how many people have lost Medicaid, Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and Affordable Care Act coverage due to Republican policy decisions, including the party’s roughly $900 billion in cuts to Medicaid and decision to let enhanced ACA subsidies expire, sending premiums skyrocketing.
Those meddling Democrats keep getting in the way! Every piece of legislation that is brought forth to replace the ACA is voted down by them!
— some maga asshole somewhere probably.
It won’t be the ACA until they can’t see a doctor and then it’ll be “Why did those Democrats get rid of the ACA and take away my healthcare! But thank God the Republicans got rid of Obamacare at least”.
