On the Sunday Shows yesterday, Trump\u2019s Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney guaranteed that nobody would lose coverage if the Affordable Care Act is overturned (clip and save), and lied that Republican replacement plans protected people with pre-existing conditions.<\/p>\n

Despite having no replacement plan, Trump\u2019s chief of staff guaranteed that Americans will not lose coverage if the ACA is overturned.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ABC News<\/a>: \u201cDespite no GOP replacement plan, acting White House chief of staff claims Americans won\u2019t lose health care if ‘Obamacare’ is struck down\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ABC\u2019s This Week<\/a>: \u201cAsked if he can guarantee that Americans will not lose coverage if Obamacare is struck down, acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney says, \u2018yes.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mulvaney also falsely said that every single plan the White House has ever put forward covered pre-existing conditions.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Hill<\/a>: \u201c\u2018Every single plan that this White House has ever put forward since Donald Trump was elected president covered pre-existing conditions,\u2019 Mulvaney said. The administration has not proposed a plan this year to replace ObamaCare, but the White House has indicated a proposal will arrive in the coming months. \u2018The debate about pre-existing conditions is over,\u2019 Mulvaney added.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The truth: Millions of Americans could lose coverage without the ACA, and the White House has backed GOP health care plans that undercut protections for people with pre-existing conditions.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Vox<\/a>: \u201cBy at least one estimate, a full repeal could cost 20 million Americans their health care coverage.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Kaiser Family Foundation\u2019s Levitt<\/a>: \u201cThe president’s budget on March 11 proposed replacing the ACA with an approach modeled after the Graham-Cassidy bill, providing \u2018relief\u2019 from \u2018many\u2019 of the ACA’s insurance rules. The original Graham-Cassidy bill allowed unlimited premiums for people with pre-existing conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n
