Hillary Clinton To Hit GOP Presidential Candidates Over Obamacare Repeal Plans

The Democratic presidential hopeful will use a series of events to talk the health law up to Americans. Also, the former first lady will this week propose a new way to control the cost of prescription drugs.

Hillary Rodham Clinton will begin filling in details this week of her proposal to tweak the Affordable Care Act, and she will attempt to use Republican presidential candidates’ opposition to the health-care-expansion law against them. Clinton plans a series of events in Louisiana, Arkansas and Iowa to needle Republicans over their opposition to a law that has greatly reduced the number of uninsured Americans, her campaign said. (Gearan, 9/19)

Hillary Clinton will roll out her fixes to the Affordable Care Act this week, an aide said Sunday, and will do so by hitting Republicans for outright opposing the law. Attaching herself to one of President Barack Obama's most consequential legislative achievements, Clinton will use events in Louisiana, Arkansas and Iowa to tout the controversial law's successes, offering a contrast to Republican presidential hopefuls who oppose the plan. (Merica, 9/20)

Hillary Rodham Clinton says she'll soon roll out a proposal for controlling the cost of prescription drugs, a key fix to President Barack Obama's signature health care law. "We have a lot of positives. But there are issues that need to be addressed," the Democratic presidential front-runner she said Sunday on CBS' "Face the Nation. "I'm going to address them this week, starting with how we're going to try to control the cost of skyrocketing prescription drugs. It's something I hear about everywhere I go." (9/20)
