IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

Mr. KILDEE submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the 
Committee on Energy and Commerce 
RESOLUTION 
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives on 
Trumpcare, also known as the American Health Care 
Act of 2017. 
Whereas the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act has 
made great strides in ensuring that health care is afford-
able, accessible and attainable for all Americans; 
Whereas Trumpcare, also known as the American Health 
Care Act of 2017, threatens to undo all of the gains 
made by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act; 
Whereas under Trumpcare, the non-partisan Congressional 
Budget Office estimates that 24 million Americans will 
lose health care coverage by 2026; 
Whereas under Trumpcare, individuals and families will be 
forced to pay higher costs for worse care;

•HRES 225 IH 
Whereas under Trumpcare, older Americans will be forced to 
pay premiums five times higher than what others will pay 
for health care coverage; 
Whereas Trumpcare would steal from part A of the Medicare 
program, reducing Medicare Hospital Insurance Trust 
Fund revenues by $117 billion between 2017 and 2026, 
hurting older Americans; 
Whereas under Trumpcare, $880 billion will be cut from 
Medicaid over the next ten years, causing 14 million 
Americans to be uninsured; and 
Whereas under Trumpcare, the 400 wealthiest Americans will 
receive a new $7 million tax break each year: Now, there-
fore, be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives— 
(1) supports efforts to ensure access to quality 
and affordable health care for all Americans; and 
(2) rejects any effort to take away the health 
care from Americans.
