Rep. Ami Bera: Health Care Bill Is ‘Political Suicide for Republicans’

‘If you have a chance to put Planned Parenthood funding back in there, go for it — it is a vital health care provider for women’

EXCERPT:

BERA: “I don’t think David's ever been a doctor. I’m a doctor by training. The Affordable Care Act actually has added 20 million people to the roles of the insured. The CBO score for the House bill says 23 million people will lose coverage so it absolutely takes us backwards. I don’t think David’s ever been a legislator either. This is about solving problems coming together, so yeah, I'd love to see Democrats and Republicans come together and address the cost of health care. At the end of the day, it is about those kitchen table conversations. David is a political operative. This is political suicide for those Republicans.”
