What I can pick up from reading Talkingpointsmemo is that Mike Mulvaney dropped by the House to strong-arm the Republican caucus. Apparently healthcare has been tossed out and instead the reason to vote for this is so they can advance their legislative agenda and not have Trump impeached. Can you imagine? That's the discussion so Democrats don't win and impeach Trump.
Yes,the essential benefits will be stripped from the bill so insurers can sell junk insurance and insurance companies can go back to ruling against necessary medical procedures. It's not just bad for the poor who get royally screwed but for all of us.
Also the CBO will not get another chance to score the bill. So the House will not have any idea about the impact.
As of the earlier revised bill,Josh Marshall showed that it would cost more but not insure any more. Great deal.
