Faith Leaders Stand for Affordable Care Act
More than 2 million Alabamians with pre-existing health conditions have benefited from the Affordable Care Act.
But there’s a possibility that could all change if the coverage is repealed and replaced. Thursday, faith leaders from across the state shared their personal stories on the coverage has helped either themselves or people they know. They believe it’s vital for not only Alabama but also for the United States.
“It’s not just a political debate. This is a survival debate. It’s about people who want to stay healthy, who want to make their lives productive and that just need that access to be able to maintain their health,” says Paul Eknes-Tucker.
As of right now, Congress has not acted to repeal Obamacare but Republican leaders promise a repeal will happen.
