Duckworth Weighs In On Healthcare Vote

Senator Tammy Duckworth is weighing in on yesterday's decision by Senate Republicans to not take a vote on legislation replacing Obamacare. 
 
“This is the result of so many Americans speaking up and letting Senate Republicans know that it is unacceptable to rush through legislation that would rob millions of their health insurance. I urge my Republican colleagues to set Trumpcare aside and finally leave this partisan process behind. That way, we can get back to work on fixes to the Affordable Care Act that both parties can support to expand access to healthcare, make prescription drugs more affordable and lower costs for hardworking Americans.”
 
Earlier, Duckworth took part in a morning rally in Washington. She expressed her fears Cassidy-Graham proposal would eliminate health care for millions, directly and indirectly.
 
 
Duckworth said the legislation would also create problems with Americans like her who deal with disabilities.
