McCollum Opposes GOP's First Steps To Dismantle Affordable Care Act

January 13, 2017

Congresswoman Betty McCollum (DFL-Minn.) today voted against House and Senate Republicans’ FY2017 budget resolution, the opening salvo in their attempt to repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The budget resolution would lead to more than 20 million Americans losing their health coverage and would add $9.5 trillion to the federal debt over the next 10 years.

“The Affordable Care Act is helping all Americans, from our young people to our seniors,” Congresswoman McCollum said. “Instead of working with us to improve this law, President-elect Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans want to once again let insurance and drug companies profit from controlling your health care.”
