Here’s The Trumpcare Deal

April 26, 2017 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Guess who would be exempt from the death panels of Trumpcare?

Congress.

Of damn course.

The newest version of the Republican health care bill would exempt lawmakers and their families from some of its most unpopular — and life-threatening — provisions.

The bill would allow states to repeal some provisions of the Affordable Care Act, such as protections covering people with pre-existing medical conditions and requiring insurance companies to pay for prescription drugs and mental health treatment.

But a GOP amendment would maintain those protections for members of Congress and their own families, reported Health Affairs Blog.

I want whatever healthcare has.  Period.

Thanks to SGray for the heads up.

Be social and share!

  1. Okay, let’s “keep” the ACA, but let stingy red states rip out most of what people like about it. Are you folks not tired of Town Hall riots yet? Maybe they could escalate to the tar & feather level to get your attention.

  2. And somewhere in this country there are good hearted folks who are working to prove that killing Affordable Health Care is illegal. ILLEGAL. Got that? Hope to bleep that is true!

    Joni Ernst should be able to provide all the medical care those Congress varmints deserve. If they want anesthesia, certainly volunteers can be found to deliver a whack upside their heads with a 2×4.

    Some animals are more equal than others.

    New Congress:
    Some animals are more like animals than others.

  6. I’m willing to negotiate to get this behind us. We can change the name to Obama-Trump Care. Call it OTC in the media. Move on to important matters, like impeaching pretty much everyone elected on November 8, 2016.

    Modern medicine can rid us of various maladies like hives, ringworm, constipation, even toenail fungus. Why can’t something, ANYTHING, rid us of the illegal traitorous current administration?

    IMPEACH TRUMP and anyone else who works up there and can’t read and understand what they thought they read.
    IMPEACH TRUMP.
    IMPEACH TRUMP.
    IMPEACH TRUMP.
    First we gotta find a brave soul who can carry the document with big words to Congress. Who can you think of?

  9. Well, at least they have been listening to their constituents.

    Themselves.
