MAGA Republicans want to repeal the #AffordableCareAct , which would devastate the lives of millions of Americans who depend on it. Did you know we get all this from the #ACA ? ⬇️ #Vote4Healthcare #HappyBirthdayACA #ACAStories

Text only: IF THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT IS REPEALED:
GONE. Protections for as many as 135 million Americans with preexisting conditions
GONE: Medicaid expansion, which covers more than 21 million people
GONE: 2.3 million young adults will no longer be able to stay on their parents' insurance
GONE: Premium tax credits that help 80% of people who purchase health care on the marketplace
GONE. Key support for rural hospitals
GONE. Ban on insurance companies having lifetime caps on coverage
GONE: Requirements that insurance companies cover prescription drugs and maternity care

6 Creative Beliefs Are Screwing You Up - Follow Your Curiosity
