As the new Trump administration and Congress came to power in early 2017, the Affordable Care Act (ACA), the healthcare law better known as Obamacare, was targeted for dismantling. AARP vigorously opposed the effort, noting that the proposed replacement included an “age tax” that could have added as much as $13,000 a year to health insurance costs for older Americans. It also would have discriminated against people who already had health conditions like cancer or diabetes.
In the end, the ACA survived but narrowly. Since then, the Trump administration has chipped away at the ACA through regulatory action the administration.
To remind yourself how your lawmakers voted, we’ve compiled a list of how the House narrowly voted to repeal the ACA and how by a razor-thin margin, the Senate defeated a bill to dismantle the ACA.
U.S. House of Representatives
On May 4, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the American Health Care Act by the razor-thin margin of 217-213. Those voting “yes” were voting to dismantle the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The Senate did not adopt this legislation, so it never became law. Here’s how House members voted:
