Lots of speakers no one cares about, but there's one session with a panel consisting of the top health advisors in the senate finance committee for both parties plus Nancy pelosis senior policy advisor

These lefty gatherings never have republican staffers so I'm excited.

Uh, ama?

The McCain thing made meeting with senators much more tricky, so no dice. But yeah I'm. the Arkansas guy

Shat all over is hyperbole

He said it was too expensive, politically impossible because of the "winners and losers". And distracts from real efforts to expand coverage

Improving and expanding the ACA is what he means. I understand what he's saying, but it's a very. inside the beltway and wonky view

tbh that kind of perspective makes me want the GOP effort to destroy obamacare to work, so they actually stop trying to defend a legacy and start trying to make good policy

like there's no reason NOT to pass a bill that says "we have universal healthcare now and obamacare is gone" except that the people involved in making it originally still want credit
