Following the U.
S. Senate’s failed vote on the “skinny repeal”,the latest Kaiser Health Tracking Poll finds that the majority of the public say it is a “good thing” that the Senate did not pass the bill that would have repealed and replaced the ACA. A large share of Americans consider President Trump and his administration should attain what they can to make the current health care law work and a majority of the public want to see bipartisan efforts to improve the 2010 health care law. However, about half of Republicans and Trump supporters would like to see Republicans in Congress withhold working on a device to repeal the ACA, and most Republicans and Trump supporters endorse using tough-ball tactics to encourage Democrats to start negotiating with President Trump on a replacement device. The majority of the public are also unaware that health insurance companies choosing not to sell insurance plans or charging higher premiums in certain marketplaces only affect those who purchase their own insurance on these marketplaces.
