this week. Marks a year anniversary. Of the passing. Of the affordable health care act. The health care bill passed -- a year ago. And from any of us it's actually had an impact. For some people it is not had an impact but I wanna talk to a little bit about how it's affected me for -- IQ so I wanna know from you. Had you seen it's been Houston's health care was passed have you seen any changes anything different in your health care for better. Or for worse I wanna note give me a call at 866677. 2496. That's 8666772496. You can also catch us at twitter.com. Slash Sean I want to know if -- health care premiums have gone up. -- it means of gunned down. If you couldn't get care before but now you have if your child had a preexisting condition and you're having trouble getting health care now you got coverage or if you're pumping he's decided all we don't know what's going on what the bill. Delft istell you for me I had not initially felt the effects of health care . Cola the you know it's it was great for people preexisting conditions. You know I've -- we do not have any at this time thanks be to god. Been very healthy so I'm just -- thing. You know if you were child up to 26 you could stay on Japan's health care mud you know a decade. Now almost a decade over that. -- in the 36 this year. And so I it was not going to benefit from baton off my parents health care for a long time so that didn't affect me either. You know there have been some additional. You know updates as well like He started sitting there grounds for creating these exchanges that all kinds of different things that have been going. Arm and people have seen it felt some of it. But I haven't felt really Iranians. Until this week c.'s this week I had to move my baby's health care . From here in the providers yes and LA. To a new provider in Washington DC and it's you know I've never donewhoa this is a much bigger deal than me usually flippant about health care . At least in my personal life. For my -- it's a big deal so I talked to the person I find the great plan I'm like yeah we'll get this health care plan it's gonna be like this and it's it's okay cool. Resonate well. Does this covering musicians like all this spoke with a deductible and that it that the co pay -- glad glad that this. Cover you cover. Immunizations are my have to pay extra for that. Cynical well I'm I'm not sure it doesn't say the plan. About the -- -- -- well I can't sign -- move forward with anything -- -- line though. Because this health care is primarily for my daughter that's what counts and I don't care -- -- hospital once or twice a year. -- heard a deal to -- every -- to get her shots and I'm feeling the anxiety like whoa like. Do -- not cover this stuff. And then here comes back the word. Deleting those checks of physical me call you back -- -- tickets ballistic OEMs aside it wasn't. In the policy didn't state explicitly -- -- dig a little for the and then I saw was there because you know -- -- cause of the affordable health care act all preventative medicine is Culbertson immunizations are Covert also.

thing. That the Republican Party has decided to do. Is to repeal. Health care . They want to repeal the so called Obama care Obama care is bad for the people allegedly and they want to getfight that's over 60% of the American people do not like. The health care bill and I think we're gonna continue to work. To bring about quality preservation and cost. Restrained in the health care in America. Okay now that's his take on it let's hear on the flip side this representative Rosa de -- Democrat from Connecticut. Talking about the same issue and I'll give you some thoughts on why this is cool moments there. Did He did nothing more than repeal of health care by the Republican. Political theater. It has become bookkeeping. Asthma and I'm quoting some journalists. This morning who mentioned that I don't remember the name but the fact of the matter it would not going to help. They're not going to repeal. Well. Natalie I think not going to repeal health care but the estimate that came from the Congressional Budget Office. Is that repealing health care will cost 200. In thirty billion dollars. It will add 230 billion dollars that the deficit.

Give me a -- 866677. 2496866677. 2496. Youthe size of government. The Congressional Budget Office has estimated that the health care law that was passed last year. Would we use the government -- deficit. Would reduce the deficit by -- hundred. Billion dollars over the next ten years. Reduce our government -- by -- billion dollars over the next ten years. They have estimated. That. By repealing health care you pat 230. Billion dollars to the deficit. The GOP -- said that these are serious about getting our fiscal house in order. And the first order of business is to repeal health care . Which is apparently due to the nonpartisan. Congressional budget to budget office has not Democrats -- Republicans is just that the accountants. County at 230 billion of the deficit and he's got a serious do they seriously. Mean to fix our debt problem. Or are they just playing the political events I wanna know from you if you believe that congress should repeal health care law. Or if they should let it stand.
