Women’s Group: Here Are The Stories Trump Doesn’t Want You To Hear About The ACA  

 

Just now, Donald Trump brought up the issue of health care in the United States and his intention to ‘save America from the disaster of Obamacare.’  UltraViolet, a leading women’s group, has compiled the the stories that Trump doesn’t want you to hear about – the American’s who can’t afford to lose their health insurance:

 

‘My son is currently in the hospital with arteriovenous malformation. He has had one brain surgery and will require many rounds of radiation. If coverage for people with pre-existing conditions is taken away, we likely will not be able to get healthcare coverage. And without healthcare coverage, I will be unable to afford the treatments for my son. Obamacare has made sure that my family is covered and my son can receive the care he desperately needs. Please do not take this away from us.’ — Whitney W.; Morgantown, WV

 

‘Many insurance companies treated being transgender as a pre-existing condition. Obamacare stopped that. Thanks to Obamacare, my trans hormone replacement therapy cannot be denied for coverage.’ — Janet L.; Stone Mountain, GA

 

‘I became ill six months before I became insured under the ACA. I had to wait for treatment because I was unable to afford health insurance without the subsidy. By the time I received treatment, I was in constant pain. Without the ACA, I wouldn’t have been able to afford the simple procedure that cured my condition and, perhaps, saved my life.’ — Debbie W.; Mountain Home, AR
