John Yarmuth: Graham-Cassidy Bill Will ‘Lead to the Deaths of Thousands of Americans’

‘How is it possible that none of these devastating details seem to be having an effect on the President and Republican Senators?’

EXCERPT:

YARMUTH: "Hello I'm Congressman John Yarmuth from Louisville, Kentucky, and the ranking Democrat on the House Budget Committee. This past week we learned that the Senate's latest iteration of TrumpCare, Graham-Cassidy they call it, would likely take health coverage away from approximately 32 million people -- a staggering 10 percent of the American public. Let's be clear: we already knew that the bill if it becomes law would eliminate protections for people with pre-existing conditions and Medicaid as we know it, cause premiums to skyrocket, limit choice, condemn millions of working families to financial ruin, and lead to the deaths of thousands of Americans."
