Congressman Salud Carbajal (CA-24) issued the following statement on the decision by Republican leadership to pull its Affordable Care Act (ACA) repeal bill from consideration in the House of Representatives: “The failure by the House Majority to pass their healthcare repeal bill is good news to the millions of families whose lives have been improved by gaining access to affordable, quality healthcare over the past seven years under the ACA. This misguided plan would have put an undue financial burden on our seniors, attacked women’s access to healthcare, and would have allowed insurance companies to charge millions of Americans significantly more for less coverage. “Congress must now work together in a bipartisan way to improve what needs fixing in the ACA and to create a more equitable and affordable healthcare system for all Americans. Thank you to those who called and wrote to make your voice heard in this critical debate. It made the difference.” ### |
