EXCERPT:

PELOSI: “Now we find ourselves in the depths of one of the most serious health and economic emergencies our nation has ever faced. The protections of the Affordable Care Act are more important now than ever. But right now, in the middle of the Coronavirus, the Trump Administration is in court suing to tear down the entire Affordable Care Act, every last protection and benefit. If President Trump succeeds in striking down the ACA in court, gone is the ban on insurers putting limits on your health care. Gone are guaranteed essential health benefits and free preventive services. Gone are young people staying on their parents' insurance until age 26. Gone is the health insurance of 20 million Americans. And gone are the lifesaving protections for more than 130 million Americans with pre-existing conditions. Today, therefore, I’m calling on President Trump to abandon his lawsuit seeking to strike down the Affordable Care Act. "
