Senate GOP health-care bill appears in deeper trouble following new CBO report - The Washington Post
'The Senate plan would reduce federal spending to help people afford premiums for individual health insurance policies significantly more than under the House version. '
'The release of the 49-page CBO \xadreport late Monday afternoon seemed to worsen the bill’s prospects. '
'Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) responded, “Anyone would tell you they don’t.”The CBO estimated that two-thirds of the drop in health coverage a decade from now would fall on low-income people who rely on Medicaid. '
'Its analysis of the Senate measure’s impact on federal spending — $321 billion saved over a decade — compared with $119 billion for the House’s version. '
'The bill would, for instance, leave in place the ACA’s expansion of Medicaid through 2020. '
