YWCA: Protect the ACA
Senators
In contrast, the ACA provides a healthcare lifeline to 9.5 million women who could not otherwise afford health insurance. The ACA includes coverage, affordability, and accessibility provisions that are critical to women's health, and has been particularly beneficial for women of color, whose uninsured rates have dropped dramatically.
"The Graham-Cassidy-Heller-Johnson legislation released today is a remix of the dangerous public policy we have seen in other efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Any health care legislation must protect the gains that women, girls, and communities of color have already made with the ACA. The current proposed legislation would exacerbate remaining inequities and create new ones. Millions of Americans who have found relief from the ACA cannot afford for policies to regress."
