President Donald Trump has not endorsed a plan to prevent Obamacare rates from spiking in three weeks, leaving Republicans without a clear path ahead of a key vote.
On Thursday the Senate is expected to vote down the only GOP plan on the table, an effort by Sens. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) and Mike Crapo (R-Idaho). Trump hasnt waded into the fray, instead talking broadly about his preferences without publicly supporting a specific plan. Absent a deal, Obamacare subsidies will spike for millions of Americans in less than a month.
White House policy teams are looking at a lot of different avenues and doing their own analysis, said one White House official, granted anonymity to discuss internal deliberations. There is no single White House-preferred plan emanating from Capitol Hill, where various options are circulating, and the White House is in touch with many offices.
We're doing our own analysis right now, and I think we need to get that figured out before we come out publicly, the White House official said.

Meaning you still don't have a plan and don't fucking care who gets hurt.

(129 posts)a 3-note samba for decades now. Health savings accounts, junk coverage with high deductibles and always trying to push us back to private high-profit insurance companies. Their hypocrisy is neverending. Why should members of Congress, who are supposed to be serving We, the People, get their plum coverage as a benefit while too many Americans don't? Everyone should have that coverage...paid by taxes or very affordable at the least.
