Press Release
WASHINGTON, D.C.—The Congressional Budget Office released its Cost Estimate on the GOP’s Healthcare plan Monday, which shows 14 million more people would be uninsured in 2018, and 24 million more would be uninsured by 2026. Rep. Val Demings, Florida’s 10th Congressional district, released this statement:

 “This report from the non-partisan CBO confirms what we already knew to be true, millions of Americans will lose health insurance, hardworking families will be forced to pay higher premiums, and Medicaid recipients will suffer greatly.

“As Republicans recklessly work to push through this plan, the people who need it the most, working families, seniors, and children stand to lose the most.

“The GOP plan is not better than the Affordable Care Act and Republicans know it."
