Sen. Cantwell Southwest Washington Health Care Affordability Event

Published | Video Starts at 18:48

We should make health care more affordable, not less affordable, and we should keep the Affordable Care act system going. Let's have Congress relook at this 50, 50 vote. Some of my Republican colleagues have said, three or four of them, that they want to do this [preserve the affordable tax credits]. So let's get at it in September. Let's prove the insurance commissioner wrong. Let's get these tax credits continued and keep health insurance more affordable. Thank you very much. It. (18:48–18:53)
