LETTER: GOP health plan is a travesty

Posted

GOP healthcare plan: Strip health insurance from millions of poor and working-class Americans.

Then make it unaffordable for millions of older Americans and those with pre-existing conditions.

Make insurance company executives even richer. Give wealthy Americans an $800 billion tax cut . . . and presto, everyone is covered.

Apparently, congressional Republicans are a shameless lot when it comes to this immoral and unethical American Healthcare Act that they passed.

The American Medical Association, American Hospital Association, AARP and many others think it’s a piece of garbage, and it is. Everyone who considers access to healthcare and healthcare insurance a basic human right needs to speak out about this travesty.
