VIDEO: Health Care Town Hall draws hundreds of Mainers in opposition to Trumpcare


Ed Saxby was one of dozens of Mainers who told powerful stories about what Trumpcare would mean for them and their families.

On March 19 in Portland, Congresswoman Chellie Pingree held a Health Care Town Hall that drew hundreds of Mainers who spoke up about their fears about Trumpcare, the Republican plan to replace the Affordable Care Act and, by the Congressional Budget Office's estimate, take health care away from 24 million Americans. Watch video from the Town Hall below.
