The Trump administration wants to eliminate guaranteed coverage for people with pre-existing conditions. The public opposes this but that won’t stop them.

“During his campaign, Donald Trump repeatedly promised to protect people with pre-existing conditions like cancer or diabetes… That was a lie. Now he's trying to strike down the protections he once called ‘one of the strongest assets’ of Obamacare.”https://t.co/tipjj5CVCl
