IFPTE urges decision makers to oppose cuts to Affordable Care Act (ACA) protections, including gutting the pre-existing conditions protections, and ending the Medicaid expansion to states that has provided millions of our most vulnerable citizens health coverage and the so-called American Health Care Act that would leave at least 24 million Americans without healthcare coverage.

IFPTE letter calling on Representatives to oppose the ACA repeal bill. “HR 1628 will leave 24 million people without health coverage, make it very difficult if not impossible for States to replace federal Medicaid dollars, lead to the loss of State government jobs, and be yet another corporate tax giveaway to already profitable heath industry companies. IFPTE urges you to oppose this bill.”
