Durante semanas, un peque\u00f1o grupo de republicanos en el Senado de los EE. UU. ha estado elaborando en secreto legislaci\u00f3n sobre seguros de salud en respuesta al proyecto de ley de la C\u00e1mara de Representantes que el presidente Donald Trump recientemente llamado "medio".<\/a><\/p>\n

Ahora el esfuerzo del Partido Republicano del Senado es a la intemperie<\/a>: el proyecto de ley no derogar\u00eda la controvertida Ley del Cuidado de Salud a Bajo Precio de 2010 de los dem\u00f3cratas (tambi\u00e9n conocida como Obamacare), pero eliminar\u00eda la mayor\u00eda de sus impuestos y posiblemente suavizar\u00eda los recortes de Medicaid del proyecto de ley de la C\u00e1mara y la reversi\u00f3n de las garant\u00edas para las personas con condiciones preexistentes.<\/p>\n

Si bien los compromisos del proyecto de ley podr\u00edan o no terminar siendo suficientes para atraer a la media docena de senadores republicanos cautelosos (los senadores republicanos Mike Lee, Rand Paul, Ted Cruz y Ron Johnson ya han declarado no lo apoyaran<\/a> en su forma actual), los dem\u00f3cratas permanecen unidos en su disgusto por el esfuerzo.<\/p>\n

El senador de Oreg\u00f3n, Jeff Merkley, uno de los principales opositores dem\u00f3cratas al presidente Trump y la agenda de los republicanos en el Congreso, dej\u00f3 en claro el jueves que considera que el proyecto de ley del Senado es peor que "mezquino". Es "diab\u00f3lico". A continuaci\u00f3n se muestra su declaraci\u00f3n en su totalidad:<\/p>\n

\u201cEl presidente Trump calific\u00f3 de manera infame el proyecto de ley de atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica de la C\u00e1mara de Representantes como 'malo'. Bueno, si ese proyecto de ley fue malo, este es francamente diab\u00f3lico.<\/p>\n

\u201cEs diab\u00f3lico porque destripa absolutamente a Medicaid, arrancando la atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica de millones de estadounidenses con recortes que son a\u00fan m\u00e1s profundos que la versi\u00f3n de la C\u00e1mara.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u00bfEn qu\u00e9 tipo de sociedad robamos la atenci\u00f3n de los estadounidenses de clase trabajadora y en apuros para pagar miles de millones de d\u00f3lares en devoluciones de impuestos para los m\u00e1s ricos de los ricos?<\/p>\n

\u201cEs diab\u00f3lico porque reduce profundamente la cobertura de Medicaid de la que dependen 60% de los residentes de hogares de ancianos para pagar sus facturas. Sin esa cobertura, muchos estar\u00edan en las calles.<\/p>\n

\u201cEs diab\u00f3lico porque este proyecto de ley alienta a los estados a destripar la cobertura esencial. Recompensa a los estados por eliminar la cobertura garantizada para atenci\u00f3n de emergencia, hospitalizaciones, tratamiento de adicciones y m\u00e1s, lo que alienta a las compa\u00f1\u00edas de seguros a crear p\u00f3lizas de salud que no valen el papel en el que est\u00e1n impresas.<\/p>\n

\u201cEs diab\u00f3lico porque impondr\u00e1 un impuesto sobre el embarazo a millones de mujeres estadounidenses, oblig\u00e1ndolas a pagar de su bolsillo miles de d\u00f3lares por atenci\u00f3n de maternidad y amenazando la vida de pacientes con condiciones preexistentes.<\/p>\n

\u201cEl mes pasado, habl\u00e9 con una mujer de Oreg\u00f3n llamada Carol. El esposo de Carol est\u00e1 en un hogar de ancianos y Carol sufre de m\u00faltiples condiciones preexistentes, incluida la insuficiencia card\u00edaca congestiva. Tanto Carol como su esposo est\u00e1n cubiertos por Medicaid. Sin la cobertura de Medicaid garantizada por la ley actual, Carol me dijo: 'Seguramente me muero'.<\/p>\n

\u201cHay vidas en juego aqu\u00ed. Esto no es un juego pol\u00edtico. Si se aprueba este proyecto de ley, quedar\u00e1 como una de las marcas m\u00e1s negras en nuestra historia nacional\u201d.<\/p>\n

El Partido Republicano necesita que 50 de sus 52 senadores apoyen el proyecto de ley para lograr la aprobaci\u00f3n, suponiendo que ning\u00fan dem\u00f3crata vote por \u00e9l. Los cuatro republicanos que actualmente se oponen a la nueva legislaci\u00f3n son conservadores que, en t\u00e9rminos generales, favorecen una derogaci\u00f3n m\u00e1s integral de los mandatos y la estructura de Obamacare. Se espera que la pr\u00f3xima semana la Oficina de Presupuesto del Congreso publique sus conclusiones sobre los costos del proyecto de ley del Senado y su impacto en el acceso a la cobertura.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
