It’s no secret that the American Health Care Act is unpopular. In recent national polls, only about 29 percent of Americans support the bill. It is the most unpopular piece of major legislation Congress has considered in decades — even more unloved than TARP (“the bailout”), and much more unpopular than the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare.

Activism matters. And political morale changes quickly.

"[The Democrats] need a counter-offer, one that's more compelling than the creaky status quo. They need a single-payer, Medicare-for-All plan."

Trump admits his health care plan would benefit rich investors, screw over people who voted for him. He didn’t even pretend otherwise.

I'm one of the millions who could lose access to health care if Republicans repeal the Affordable Care Act.

This Republican health care plan is dangerous to our health and needs to be pulled off the shelf
