Mike Johnson Pledges Major ACA Reforms Within First 100 Days if Trump Wins
Oct 30, 2024, 01:53 PM
House Speaker Mike Johnson has pledged significant changes to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) if former President Donald Trump wins the upcoming election. Speaking at a campaign event in Pennsylvania, Johnson criticized Obamacare and promised 'massive reform,' indicating that the GOP would take a 'blowtorch to the regulatory state.' Johnson's statements suggest that a Trump administration would aim to repeal the ACA within the first 100 days, potentially stripping health care protections from millions of Americans, including 140 million Americans with pre-existing conditions. This move has sparked significant debate, with House Democrats vowing to protect and strengthen the ACA, while Republicans argue for a return to a free-market health care system. Currently, 45 million people rely on Obamacare for their health care needs.
