gimme guidance: the GOP Health Care Plan


posted by Delia Christina
The Wonk Room reads the GOP Health Care Plan So I don't have to but that doesn't prevent me from being confused (which I'm completely at ease with admitting.)

My main takeaway: this plan screws over women (check out what it might mean for reproductive access), poor people and basically does nothing to 'reform' anything. Right? Or an oversimplification that might be close to the truth?

Anyway, if there's a diligent, apt, and pithy Bitch reader out there who can give a smart assessment/opinion on this plan vs. whatever plan is currently on the floor (there are several?), with a particular eye toward how this and other plans impact women and the poor (because none of the talking heads ever talk about that), I'd be extremely grateful.

Help a Ding out.
