Stephanopolous to Rubio: Will Calling for Repeal O’Care Going Be a Liability for GOP?

‘We’ve outlined a proposal that is much better than what we are seeing now, which is increasing premiums, limiting coverage and discouraging businesses from hiring people’

RUBIO: “Absolutely. Oh, no. I mean I — I don’t want to just repeal it, I want to replace it. There is no doubt we have a health insurance issue in America. I’ve outlined exactly what we wanted replace it with. And that is a plan or a program that allows every American to control their own health insurance money, whether it’s a refundable tax credit or it comes from their employer and they can use it to buy any health insurance they want anywhere in the country. It would make it portable. It would allow them to buy across state lines. We would have high risk pools for people with pre-existing conditions that are chronically ill. We’ve outlined a proposal that is much better than what we are seeing now, which is increasing premiums, limiting coverage and discouraging businesses from hiring people.”
