Fourteen years after the passage of the Affordable Care Act, George Logan’s Republican Party continues to follow Donald Trump’s dangerous calls to “terminate” coverage for 129,000 people in Connecticut, including some of the 529,000 Connecticuters with pre-existing conditions who would likely be charged more or denied coverage without the ACA’s protections.
Recent polling shows that nearly 60% of voters support the ACA. Half of all Americans want Congress to expand the ACA, not repeal or replace it.
The majority of the House Republican conference, via their continued support of the Republican Study Committee support a plan to gut the ACA and privatize Medicare. Repealing the ACA could take away coverage from 40 million people enrolled through the open market and more than 50 million Americans with previously declinable pre-existing conditions.
George Logan cannot be trusted with Connecticut voters’ health care.
DCCC Spokesperson Ellie Dougherty:
“For 14 years, millions of Americans have had access to quality health care thanks to the Affordable Care Act. George Logan’s Republican Party is fixated on repealing this law, putting hundreds of thousands of people in Connecticut, including those with pre-existing conditions, at risk of being denied coverage on Donald Trump’s orders. Connecticut voters won’t be fooled come November.”
