The Trump-Barletta Agenda: Ending Protections For Pre-Existing Conditions

Last night, the Trump administration launched the latest Republican attack on protections for people with pre-existing conditions. In response, Pennsylvania Democratic Party spokesman Brandon Cwalina released the following statement:

“Pennsylvanians can be confident that Donald Trump’s lapdog Lou Barletta will throw his full support behind this attempt to end coverage for people with pre-existing conditions. After all, Congressman Barletta frequently boasts that he ran for Senate to be the ‘one vote’ to overturn the Affordable Care Act. Democrats will make sure Pennsylvanians know exactly what the Trump-Barletta health care agenda will mean for middle class families: an end to coverage for people with pre-existing conditions, skyrocketing health care costs, and an age tax on older Americans.”
