"Health care funding for 9 million kids expired more than 2 months ago.

Republicans promised to reauthorize CHIP -- so far all they've offered are words and half measures."

"Republicans promised to bring down the cost of prescription drugs.

Instead, their #GOPTaxScam lowered the corporate tax rate for Big Pharma."

"Republicans promised to treat the opioid epidemic like an emergency.

Yet there has been no emergency funding to respond to it."

"Republicans promised to lower health insurance premiums.

Instead they've acted to increase premiums via repeal, sabotage, and refusing to pass bipartisan health care stabilization bills."

"Republican health care promises do not match reality. I urge my colleagues to actually do something for the Americans we serve and and work with us to strengthen our health care system."
