Is this true?
The Senate voted 51 to 48:
1. To end coverage for preexisting conditions, veterans benefits, and aid to rural hospitals.
2. To remove discrimination protection for women in healthcare.
3. Against the provision allowing children to remain on their parent's insurance till the age of 26.
4. To cut off funding for the Child Health Insurance Program (CHIP).
5. Against ACA contraceptive coverage and maternity care provision.
6. To direct committees to send budget legislation to defund and repeal the Affordable Care Act.
For those who get health insurance through work, no pre-existing conditions. Lifetime caps for coverage are back for everyone.
Real and disastrous actions are being taken that will affect more than just the 20-30 million people who will lose their health care coverage and the 3 million people who will lose their jobs.
Despite their assertions of this being an action to "repeal and replace," no viable alternative plan has been proposed.
The House votes Friday.
As of this moment, no replacement exists.
Apparently, Speaker Ryan has had his phones cut off because of the volume of calls, so here is his mailing address:
1233 Longworth HOB
Washington, D.C. 20515
Fax: (202) 225-3393
COPY AND PASTE THIS. (If you share it, only our mutual friends will be able to see it.)

I'm finding bits and pieces of each online but I just saw this posted by one of my doctor friends on fb. Not sure if it's propaganda or truth. If this is truth this is horrifying.

Where did you read this? I have not read this anywhere. I think this is Fake news or maybe an alternative fact.

This can't be true, it would make headlines if it was...

I thought the house had voted to start the process of repeal it and we were waiting on the senate. The news said many republican senators were unsure how'd they'd vote since there was no replacement yet. This was like 2 weeks ago.
