“The Trump administration radically expanded its war on health care this week ... asking the court to strike down every last provision of the Affordable Care Act,” said Pelosi in a press conference Thursday. “We will fight that. We will fight that in the Congress, we will fight that in the court, and we’ll fight it in the court of public opinion.”
The unexpected filing in the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, where the district court ruling is under appeal, came amid the administration’s celebrations of the ending of the special counsel’s investigation into the 2016 presidential election. Attorney General William Barr said on Sunday that the report found no collusion between Trump’s campaign and the Russian government.
In response to Trump’s renewed attack on Obamacare, House Democrats on Tuesday introduced a bill to strengthen the ACA. The bill, called Protecting Pre-existing Conditions and Making Health Care More Affordable Act, is intended to “improve the affordability of, undo sabotage with respect to, and increase access to health insurance coverage.”
After the administration’s announcement, Trump on Tuesday said, “I understand health care now” and vowed to make the GOP the “party of great health care.” The following day, the president promised a better plan as he defended his decision to invalidate the law.
