U.S. Congresswoman Debbie Dingell (MI-12) released the following statement on the Congressional Budget Office’s preliminary assessment of the Graham-Cassidy bill. “The CBO’s partial assessment of the Graham-Cassidy bill confirms what we’ve heard from families, health care providers and experts – that this bill would be devastating for families in Michigan and across the country, causing millions to lose health coverage and slashing a trillion dollars from the Medicaid program, which provides critical services for children and seniors with long-term care needs. The American people have rejected Trumpcare time and again, and this proposal is the most extreme yet. It’s time for Republicans to work with Democrats on bipartisan solutions that will update and improve health care for every American, not take it away.” |
