House Democrats Doggett, Crowley, Jackson Lee oppose American Health Care Act

Texas Democrat Lloyd Doggett says the harsh indifference of Republicans to Americans, this a strong, President Donald Trump at a tweet storm with fake news, but Republicans who follow him cannot find an excuse as one family after another suffers, that comedian Jimmy Kimmel was fortunate, but other babies born with disabilities face the barrier of pre-existing conditions, families will lose coverage and many jobs will be lost, that the real high risk pool is the one that everyone who votes for the outrageous proposal is about to plunge into. House Democratic Caucus Chair Joe Crowley of New York says, majority Republicans think the family find the right combination of political giveaways to pass the bill, which still charges seniors more, takes away the most basic protections from healthcare plans, and despite what is heard a latest Band-Aid amendment is not going to change any of that, saying the bill is damaging and the height of irresponsible governing, that will hurt 24 million Americans. Texas Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee asks colleagues to take a look and keep their eyes on who will feel the mother of all bombs of healthcare dropped on the American people, repeating God have mercy on your soul, that she wants mothers to live in dignity and make sure that Medicaid is provided for working families, that she does not want the port to sleep under bridges, beg in the streets, or steal bread from markets because they cannot get health insurance.
