Cassidy-Graham health bill a test of Republican courage
Lawrence Summers argues the Cassidy-Graham plan would dismantle core ACA protections for pre existing conditions and essential mental health coverage while slashing Medicaid. He urges Republican senators to act as 21st century Profiles in Courage, warning of dire state costs and potential deaths if the bill passes. Summers notes the per capita cap would deepen Medicaid cuts through 2036, threatening seniors, disabled, and families.
