The House is scheduled to vote Wednesday, January 19 on repeal of Health Care Reform. It is important that your legislator know that there is a lot of support for Health Care Reform. We want to see them move forward with implementation and do not want to see it repealed or defunded.

Remember:

16 million people with incomes below 133% of the federal poverty level disabilities would lose eligibility to be covered by Medicaid expansion in 2014.

Health Care Reform will eliminate the Medicare Part D drug benefit coverage gap (known as “the donut hole”). Repealing the ACA will force millions of people to continue to pay absurd out of pocket costs.

Repeal would eliminate the requirement of no cost sharing for preventive services in both Medicare and private insurance.

Over 1.2 million young adults would lose their insurance coverage through their parents’ health plans.

In addition to increasing the number of uninsured, insurance would become MORE expensive for those continuing to buy it.

AND

The impartial Congressional Budget Office has said that repeal would increase the federal deficit by $230 b. in the next decade alone
