3:33Now PlayingBernie Sanders DEBATE With Amy Klobuchar Vs Lindsey Graham And Bill Cassidy #HealthcareDebate #ACA
The health care debate: Live updates. What to know for tonight
Who's debating: Sens. Lindsey Graham, Bill Cassidy, Bernie Sanders and Amy Klobuchar
The Graham-Cassidy bill: Graham and Cassidy are the namesake sponsors of a last-ditch effort to repeal and replace Obamacare.
Where it stands: Sens. Susan Collins, John McCain and Rand Paul have said they will oppose the bill, likely killing it.
"Medicare for all": Sanders introduced a new "Medicare for all" health care bill with a third of the Senate Democratic caucus by his side. What does this bill do for the opioid crisis?
The number of Americans diagnosed with opioid addiction continues to skyrocket, but still very few receive any treatment. Last month, Trump declared that the opioid crisis is a national emergency.
What protections in the bill would ensure coverage for drug addiction treatment?
This question was posed by a woman in the audience who told an emotional story of losing her son and her husband before overcoming her own addiction. Klobuchar: Maybe we need a few more women senators
Why block women from getting essential health care services from Planned Parenthood?
Sen. Cassidy said women in urban areas could have more options beyond Planned Parenthood.
But Sen. Klobuchar disagreed, saying one in five women get their care from Planned Parenthood and that it is essential. (Here are the facts on Planned Parenthood.)
“I love these guys, but maybe if we added a few more women senators..." she said, before being cut off by applause.
Here's that moment: Graham: "John McCain was willing to die for this country, and he can vote any way he wants"
Moments after Trump tweeted the attack on John McCain (see the post below this one for more on that), Sen. Lindsey Graham came to his defense:
"He is one of my dearest friends in the world, and John McCain can do whatever damn he wants to. He’s earned that right," Graham said.
McCain, who is a close friend of Graham, said he would not support his bill.
"John McCain was willing to die for this country, and he can vote any way he wants to," Graham said.
