“Terminate It”: What Trump’s Obamacare Repeal Will Cost New Hampshire

Latest News

What Will Chris Sununu Do to Stop the President From Ripping Health Care From 89,000 Granite Staters?

Yesterday, President Trump doubled down on his administration’s ultimate goal to “terminate” the ACA even as the country faces its worst public health crisis in history. The deadly effects that a repeal of the Affordable Care Act would cause are unquestionable.

  • 89,000 people would lose health care coverage, raising the state’s uninsured rate among its nonelderly population from 6 percent to 14.3 percent.
