Early this morning the
so-called "skinny" or partial ACA repeal package was defeated
in the Senate by a vote of 49-51. Thanks in large part to the countless
calls, emails and social media posts from advocates just like you, the
Senate narrowly averted passing legislation that would have cut access to
quality, affordable care.
This is not the end of the process. Hearings and bipartisan discussions
about legislation to stabilize the individual market are anticipated when
Congress returns from the August recess. Much work remains to be done to
address problems and gaps in our health care system.
We greatly appreciate your partnership and your continued engagement with
the AMA to improve the health of the nation.
