The Atlantic Daily: Here Comes the Health Plan

This bill builds on the American Health Care Act passed by the House last month, but with some changes, including slightly more generous tax credits and deeper cuts to Medicaid. As lawmakers prepare to debate and vote on the bill next week, former President Barack Obama posted a statement on Facebook, condemning the plan and defending his own signature policy as he never did while in office.
