After nearly fifty days in the White House, President Trump has done an excellent job. On his second day in office he vowed to destroy the Islamic State, and on his ninth day he fulfilled his promise of a 5 year-ban on officials becoming lobbyists after they leave government, and a lifetime ban on White House officials lobbying on behalf of a foreign government, which was a promise kept. (foxnews.com) My favorite quote by my President Trump is “My policy is to learn from the past, focus on the present, and dream about the future. " I think that this quote describes him perfectly as a president.
Second, also the tax of Affordable Care Act has disadvantages. According to the Congressional Budget Office(CBO) “Those increases were more than offset by a reduction of $97 billion in the projected costs for the tax credits and other subsidies for health insurance provided through the exchanges and related spending, a reduction of $20 billion in the projected costs for tax credits for small employers, and a reduction of $107 billion in deficits from the projected revenue effects of changes in taxable compensation and penalty payments and from other small changes in estimated spending.” (Congressional Budget Office, March 2012). The Affordable Care Act levied the new taxations include the health insurers, investment income, tanning salons,
They are in charge of many things. Obama care is a potential solution that will help repair the nation’s health care
Democrats faced opposition from Latino representatives who viewed the bill as failing to address the needs of the Latino electorate, with some representatives withdrawing support for the bill (Sweeny, 2017). One area that has continued to polarise debate on immigration reforms is the DREAM Act where despite a bipartisanship approach in its creation, support in the house was split along party lines with the bill defeated in the Congress. The failure to enact far reaching immigration reforms has seen the DREAM Act continue to be an issue even in the Donal Trump presidency an indication of failed legislation due to
First, I think it 's cute how you 're dictating what I should think, as if I 'm incapable of developing an knowledgeable opinion. Secondly, before we continue with Immigration reform we have to shut the border and figure out what to do with the people here. Period. The only reason you have to shut the border is due to the welfare state.
Since Trump took office, Republicans have proposed laws that would rob 32 million people of health insurance, fund a border wall by drastically reducing poverty programs, and cut $1.8 trillion from Medicare, Medicaid and Obamacare in order to pay for tax cuts for the
During a joint session with Congress on February 24, 2009, President Obama said, "So let there be no doubt: Healthcare reform cannot wait, it must not wait, and it will not wait another year” (8).

Mann, ABA American Military University POLS210 Abstract Since the passing of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), twenty-eight states have either filed joint or individual lawsuits to strike down the PPACA.

Topics that will be presented will include; the current issues being debated, two competing thoughts on how to fix the ACA, an evaluation of the preferred solution, and finally the responsibility of each level of government.

The Health Care Choice Act of 2017 (HCCA) is legislation designed to modify US policy related to the federal approach to health care. HCCA is designed to repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) and some provisions of the Healthcare and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010. HCCA also addresses the Public Health Service Act (PHCA) to support interstate healthcare coverage where a health insurer can insure from one state to an individual in another, and that the laws of the health insurer’s state are the laws which apply. The law exempts insurers from the laws of the secondary state (the state of an insured, if they live in another state than the insurer) (“H.R. 314”, 2017). The primary state has jurisdiction to regulate
Cristina Briceno Texas Government Section 2306.S21 March 7, 2017 Medicaid and Obamacare in Texas Medicaid and other welfare programs have long been serving individuals living not just in Texas but in the United States as a whole. The Affordable Care Act is another one of those programs that was implemented by former President Obama to help insure the uninsured across the 50 states. While it does have many pros, some Americans believe that it is not working and that it is imposing a burden on those who do not benefit off of any welfare program or the Obamacare. Now, with Donald Trump as our President, one of his priorities is to repeal this Affordable Care Act that our former president had enforced and cut the budget for medicaid; and hopefully
In the United States, Medicare is the program supports people over age 65 with medical care. It also provides support for persons with certain disabilities and people of all ages who have kidney failure. Medicaid is a state administered program that provides medical support for a broad range of people. However, each state administers Medicaid individually and this creates inconsistencies in the program across the country. There are specific rules for judging just how much money someone receiving Medicaid can make and be eligible.
In 2017, Republicans take on changing the health-care industry was for each senator to find the best solution for his or her state. The most perilous rift sits between Republicans from states that accepted the federal funding to enlarge Medicaid coverage to millions more Americans, and those from states that turned down that expansion. Earlier I mentioned how many do not look at congress as a business, but indulge in emotions to fix an issue. Many of the Republicans from non-Medicaid-expansion states are more
A recent article on BBC News explains the controversy of health care as a right or a privilege. In March 2010, former president Barack Obama passed a bill called the Affordable Care Act, also known as ObamaCare, in order to reduce the high cost of healthcare in the country. The main goal of this is to provide affordable health coverage to the estimated 15% of the population who lack it (bbc.com). Now the debate is whether or not Healthcare is a right to all or if it should just be considered a privilege. One side says no, asking why they should be forced to pay for someone else’s medical expenses, while the other side argues that health care is beneficial to all, and everyone deserves the right to health care.
Healthcare in the United States is in desperate need of reform. There are several rationales to further explain this proposition. As an illustration, the Declaration of Independence states our unalienable rights: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. In other words, every individual should be entitled to healthcare as it preserves life and promotes the general welfare. The federal government should, therefore, enact a program of universal health to better protect and serve all of its citizens.
