Angry Sen. Bob Casey Unloads On GOP Health Care Plan

Published | Video Starts at 01:10

I am angry, very angry. What angers the Senator are provisions in the Republican bill that hurt Pennsylvanians, including those who think they're okay because they have private employer provided health insurance. If you have employer sponsored coverage, you have protections that you didn't have before [under] the Affordable Care Act. Those protections are at risk in the Senate health care bill. There's just absolutely no question about that. Protections to prevent insurance companies from charging more to those with pre existing medical conditions or imposing annual or lifetime limits.

CLAIM

Asserts that the Affordable Care Act provides protections for those with employer-sponsored coverage.
