OBAMACARE (ACA)/PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS/SUPREME COURT/TRUMP ADMIN: “The goal of the outgoing [Trump] administration is clear from the brief they filed in the Supreme Court. It asserts, and I quote, ‘The entire ACA thus must fall.’ End of quote… Seventy-nine percent of the American people, including nine out of ten Democrats, eight out of ten independents, and two thirds of Republicans, want to keep the ACA protections for people with pre-existing conditions, which would be eliminated if this lawsuit were to succeed…

Let’s be absolutely clear about what’s at stake. The consequences of the Trump administration’s argument are not academic or an abstraction. For many Americans, they’re a matter of life and death in a literal sense. This argument will determine whether healthcare coverage of more than 20 million Americans who acquired under the Affordable Care Act will be ripped away in the middle of the nation’s worst pandemic in a century.”
