Is it from Swiss researchers? I see a lot of holes in it.

Aaron, the main point is that Scalise wants to buy health insurance from an animal mascot. Let the man have his animal mascot.

I find that how well someone knows Spinal Tap is a fairly decent litmus test of how much I'll get along with them.

Armed ICE agents trapped US citizens in a restaurant and demanded their papers. Federal agents walked into East African restaurants in Cedar-Riverside, MN. They closed and blocked the doors. Then they demanded to see everyone’s papers. Every person present was a US citizen.

I suppose they might view the forthcoming Medicaid coverage losses they voted for as victory over the middle man for millions of Americans.

Insurance subsidies for tens of millions of people expire in a few weeks.

Republicans on the Hill are still at the "concepts of a plan" stage.

OMG. I never met her, but her work was incredibly brilliant and important. What a huge loss.

The brilliant Kate Ho has passed away.

She was an amazing economist and a genuinely kind human being. Her work shaped how we think about healthcare markets and her generosity touched everyone lucky enough to know her.

The profession and the world are poorer without her.

I would love to see if GOP leaders commit to allowing CBO to complete its full analysis of this bill before starting debate.

The GOP plan is to let premiums massively spike for 21 million Americans.

And then it gives them $1k per year ONLY IF they switch to bronze plans — which it also raises the cost of.

Awful awful plan that fucks over sick people.
NEWS — Senate R's expect there WILL be a vote on a GOP alternative to Dems' 3-year Obamacare subsidy extension bill. Almost everyone at lunch spoke up in favor, per 3 attendees. This is a shift Sounds like it will be Crapo-Cassidy bill Thune to announce shortly w/@bresreports
