Heinrich: TrumpCare Puts More Than 6 Million People With Pre-Existing Conditions At Risk

New report finds people with pre-existing conditions could face higher insurance premiums under GOP health care bill

WASHINGTON — The debate on national healthcare policy continues and on Thursday, U.S. Senator Martin Heinrich (D-N.M.) called on Senate Republicans to protect the more than six million people with pre-existing conditions from TrumpCare’s harmful impacts.
