"I’m sure [Pharma] hate[s] it, But look, they're not good actors. I mean, Big Pharma has gotten a sweetheart deal, they’ve gotten huge, they’ve gotten powerful, they’ve gotten rich, and I’m not terribly sympathetic to their position on this." Sen Josh Hawley (R-MO)

Trump’s health plan is in his budget. It ends Medicaid expansion and pre-ex protections, raises drug costs on 12 million seniors, cuts coverage from 20 million Americans.
That is manifold, Kellyanne.

CHRIS WALLACE: "Simple question, Kellyanne -- what's the Republican health care plan?"
KELLYANNE CONWAY: "The Republican plan is manifold."
(She goes on to attack Obama)

I want to be very clear about what #HB481 does: it bans safe, legal abortion.
Patients must be empowered to make their own healthcare decisions, and doctors must be able to provide healthcare to our patients — without the threat of prison time. #StopTheBans

The sponsor of Georgia's "hearbeat" abortion bill told supporters Tuesday night #hb481 should be on the floor Thursday said the vote count could be tight. (needs 91 to pass)
"There's a lot of folks who voted yes who kind of have a bellyache about it." #gapol (h/t @ajc)

This is deeply distressing for patients. Call @GovMLG today and ask her to sign HB 436 to protect people with pre-existing conditions. #nmleg #nmpol

Trump’s stated health policies that depend on things in Obamacare
1) Ending the HIV epidemic. The ACA’s Medicaid expansion is a major source of coverage for HIV patients. The ACA also created new protections for patients with HIV/AIDS. nyti.ms/2UX0mIO?smid=nytcore…
