DURBIN STATEMENT ON COLLAPSE OF TRUMPCARE IN HOUSE

PEORIA--U.S. Senate Democratic Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL) released the following statement after House Republicans pulled their health care repeal bill from the floor:

Republicans have spent seven years posturing and misleading the public about the Affordable Care Act. Today, their frantic attempt to ram through a half-baked bill repealing health care for millions of Americans fell flat. Republicans must put repeal behind them now and work with Democrats to improve--not destroy--America's health care system.
