Letter: Health care proposal is bad for America

TO THE EDITOR:

Trumpcare is a blow to working class families, older adults and an assault on Medicaid and Medicare! It does nothing to CUT costs, the very premise on which it is planning to supersede Obamacare! Trump or the Republicans have had six to seven years to work on a better and more economical health care plan! But they did nothing.

Now they want to pass a shoddy and expensive health care plan, with no regard to the 24 million who will be thrown off the boat and come running to emergency care, adding costs to already burdened taxpayers. Please, reject Trumpcare. Instead, take time to think (about) and tweak Obamacare to improve it in a bipartisan fashion.
