Republican Health Care Lingo Every Voter Should Know.
Do YOU know what your Republican Member of Congress means when they say things like "high-risk pools?"
It means they want to go back to when people with pre-existing conditions like cancer could be denied coverage.

Trump's billionaire-first agenda has cost families in Washington state an average of $948 MORE so far this year, according to a new JEC Dems report.
Apparently, the "Golden Age of America" only exists if you have billions of dollars to pay for it.
You set the example from the top. Is it "civil" to call a fellow passenger "piggy?"
Always be kind to your fellow passengers as well as airport and airline staff.
In short: don't be like Donald Trump.
I was in Seattle today with parents and education leaders to sound the alarm on Trump’s nonstop efforts to destroy the Department of Education and what that means for our students.
The fight for our kids' education—and future—is more important now than ever.
Our kids are our future—and there are real stakes to Trump’s relentless sabotage and destruction of the Department of Education.
I heard from parents and education leaders in Seattle today about what this means for students and their education.
The President is a crook —and everyone should understand, when it comes to FEMA, these are taxpayer dollars he’s abusing, this isn’t Trump’s money.
Trump is punishing Blue states and rewarding Red states—and he could not be more transparent about his corruption.
I was at the Capitol on January 6th when they built a gallows outside and chanted "Hang Mike Pence."
We cannot sit by as Trump riles up another crowd and lifts up new calls for violence.
We cannot pretend we don't know how serious President Trump's actions are.
RFK Jr. has NO business being health secretary and his conspiracy theories are going to get people killed.
This cannot continue—Republicans should join me in calling for RFK Jr. to be FIRED.
Trump's rhetoric toward Democratic lawmakers is a disgrace—it’s not even close to acceptable coming from an American President.
Republican Senators need to show some courage and state plainly that the President is not above the law. That is the bare minimum.
The President using his platform to lift up people calling for political violence is twisted, dangerous stuff.
There is NO room in our democracy for political violence—and every single Senator should join me in saying Trump's behavior is completely unacceptable.
The President of the United States is using his platform to lift up people calling for political violence—the hanging of Democratic Members of Congress.
This is dangerous beyond measure. There has to be a line, and my Republican colleagues must wake up and speak out.
There is no universe where it is acceptable for a United States ally to detain an AMERICAN CITIZEN under these god awful conditions. This is not "America First" in any way.
The Trump administration needs to take action immediately to bring this teenager home.
How are rural residents supposed to shop around for emergency care? What do they do when there's only one hospital for miles?
Especially when GOP Medicaid cuts are CLOSING those hospitals!
These are the devastating consequences of Republican abortion bans. Women suffer—and in some cases die—because they can't get the health care they need.
Abortion IS health care. Full stop.
The Trump administration can claim over and over again that prices are going down, but the numbers don't lie and the American people can see the truth for themselves.
Senate Republicans' outrageous provision in the spending bill to give millions of taxpayer dollars to just a handful of GOP Senators has got to go. I helped introduce legislation to repeal this corrupt cash grab ASAP.
What a disgusting way to talk to a journalist asking a simple and fair question. This is no way for any decent human being, much less the President, to speak.
Makes you wonder why he's being so defensive.
Congress sent a clear message to the White House: Release the Epstein Files.
It should have never taken this long. Why did Trump fight this for months?
Trump & McMahon are lawlessly trying to abolish the Department of Education & tear down public education in America.
They know how unpopular this plan is—that's why despite Republican majorities in Congress, they're choosing to do this ILLEGALLY.
This is absolutely disgusting.
This corrupt White House is flagrantly abusing its power to help an alleged sex trafficker spit in the face of the law and avoid any real accountability.
