Krishnamoorthi On Senate Deal: The Affordability of American Health Care Can’t Depend On Donald Trump’s Promises

SCHAUMBURG, IL – Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi issued the following statement in response to the Senate’s budget agreement:

“Time and again, Donald Trump has proven that his promises aren’t worth the paper they’re written on. From the start of this shutdown, I’ve said our focus must be on confronting the surge in health care costs unleashed by his administration. Across Illinois, I’ve met families pushed to the brink—and doctors and nurses doing everything they can to keep them healthy amid the chaos. The ability of the American people to afford health care must not depend on Donald Trump keeping his word. I cannot support any deal built on delay, deception, and empty promises.”
