White House hits back at criticism of health care act

White House Spokesman Sean Spicer said the Congressional Budget Office was “way off” in its report claiming that 14 million people would lose insurance coverage in the first year of the GOP replacement for Obamacare.

Spicer said the CBO reports are “consistently wrong” and in this case, did not take into consideration all three parts of the plan to repeal and replace Obamacare.

He said the report does acknowledge however that the American Health Care Act would actually reduce the deficit by over 330 billion dollars.
