The truth is though, the Affordable Care Act isn’t flawless, it is however a good start in nationalizing health care.
According to the California Health Care Foundation, 1.4 million Americans are insured by the Affordable Care Act and more than 20,000 of them are living in the Coachella Valley. Repealing the ACA without a replacement threatens these economic gains as well as state revenues.
“Replacing is going to take some work, so there are any number of questions about what’s going to happen in the intro”, Cochran said. “But I know a lot of veterans who are depending on it”.
“I’ve been a practitioner in Nevada for 31 years as an OB-GYN”.

More than 55 million women lose access to birth control and other preventative care presently covered without a co-pay. Contrary to what Republicans have said, the ACA has resulted in more – not fewer – jobs.

There will be a stable transition to a better system that delivers the reforms the American people are demanding: “care you need, at a price you can afford, from a doctor of your choosing”.
