actually it's the exact same bill, with an amendment which lets the states opt out of federal regulations.

this amendment hasn't actually been written yet, but we should be assured that it will be excellent.

gg republicans.

What should I have for lunch?

Well that's a little better. When do individuals get to opt out?

If a state opts out, does that mean residents of that state will lose protections like preventative care being free and pre-existing conditions can prevent them from getting insurance?

probably because otherwise the freedom caucus wouldn't support it, and this bill is sponsored by someone in the freedom caucus.

These shitheads still can't write a good bill.

Yep, states can opt out and deny based on preexisting conditions. Thank god we sent that message in 2016. This will be great for people's health. Hopefully moderates don't approve.
