"This is not the art of the deal; it is the art of the steal"

Statement

Date: March 24, 2017
Location: Washington, DC

Today, on the House floor, Congressman Lloyd (D-TX), the Ranking Member of the Ways and Means Tax Policy Subcommittee, spoke against Republicans' "Pay More for Less" healthcare bill that has been rejected by physicians, nurses, hospitals, the AARP, the American Cancer Action Network, Consumers Union, and more. Rep. Doggett said:

"Trumpcare is big on Trump, but it's weak on care. Insurance plans will not only be "skinny;' they will be a sham that denies coverage when accident or illness requires certain types of treatment. Many certificates of insurance will become as worthless, almost, as a diploma from Trump University. Mr. President, this isn't the art of the deal; it is the art of the steal--of taking away insurance coverage from millions."
