HEALTHCARE/OBAMACARE (ACA)/PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS: “REPEALING AND REPLACING: President Donald J. Trump supports the American Health Care Act (AHCA), which will remove Obamacare’s burden and put in place a responsible replacement.

The AHCA protects the most vulnerable Americans, including those with pre-existing conditions.

Nobody can be denied coverage on the basis of a pre-existing condition and the bill provides over $120 billion for states to keep those plans affordable.

$8 billion is specifically directed to states that waive certain Obamacare rules to ensure plans stay affordable for those with pre-existing conditions.”
