The Trump administration is hardening its legal position toward Obamacare, arguing the entire law is unconstitutional in a shift that promises to bring the issue to the forefront of the 2020 election campaign.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi criticizes the GOP on the move against the Affordable Care Act and on the GOP's response to the Mueller report on the Russia investigation.
Trump’s move, which could prove to be a gift for Democrats, prompted a swift response from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. “Tonight in federal court, the Trump administration decided not only to try to destroy protections for Americans living with pre-existing conditions, but to declare all-out war on the health care of the American people,” the San Francisco lawmaker said Monday in a statement.
Democratic strategist and campaign veteran Jesse Ferguson said Trump’s party “lost the midterms" as a result of its position on healthcare, but “he seems determined to put his hand on that hot stove again and again.” “If the Trump administration gets its way, millions of people will be stripped of their health insurance. It would devastate Americans across the country,” Rep. Joaquin Castro, said late Monday night.
