NBC News is reporting that about 18 million people would lose or drop their health insurance in the first year after Obamacare is repealed, the Congressional Budget Office reported Tuesday.
“The nonpartisan federal agency also found that health insurance premiums would spike another 20 to 25 percent, according to the new report. Within 10 years, 32 million more people would be without health insurance, the CBO projects,” writes Maggie Fox.
The report’s projections are based on the repeal law passed in the House of Representatives last year, using a budget-based process called reconciliation, the same process that Congress is working on now.
