pelosi: good morning. so much happening in the world, so much of it very sad for the children in manchester. have to keep praying if they will allow us to pray for them. so yesterday, the c.b.o. confirmed what we all knew, but they made clear that many americans with pre-existing conditions would face soaring costs and frightening limits on the care they need. some people with pre-existing conditions, many of them would no longer be able to afford coverage of any kind. the c.b.o. report confirmed that gutting essential health benefits means many people would see huge cost increases for basic coverage like maturnt care, opioid addictions and mental health treatment. e report also confirmed that any injury or notice of an illness, many americans will find they have been paying for health coverage that doesn't cover much at all. trumpcare means higher costs and 23 millions losing protections, a crushing age tax and stealing from medicare. could go into detail about each and every one of these things, but mayb

pelosi: tax cuts. one of the members, more than one, but this thought came from some of the moderate members. it doesn't matter because the senate is not going to let this pass, but they have put their name next to some of the worst provisions in this bill. so, again, if we look and we should be sadder that this passed, we are. the uncertainty in people's lives but maybe we had to hit rock bottom and that is what is happening in the rose garden, rock bottom. reporter: the senate reports they are going to write their own. any comments on that? ms. pelosi: i have heard that. reporter: whose idea was the singing on the floor from your side? >> i think that was spontaneous. i have no idea. reporter: they all just seemed

it is now my honor to reintroduce nancy pelosi. ms. pelosi: thank you very much. thank you, emily. thank you, emily, thank you denise, thank you maureen for sharing your stories with us. and i also want to acknowledge the leadership, bobby scott and mr. john yarmuth, ranking member on the committees of urisdiction. they along with representative neal of ways and means and frank pallone have been leading in this effort to spell out the consequences and find a better way, so thank you, including ms. delauro, wear manage hats here, including most important of all, a person with a pre-existing condition. the republicans started when they started with their bill they'd exempt themselves from any negative provisions of this bill. imagine that. but let me just say a couple of things as we go forward. the most compelling statements we have here from the experience that maureen and emily and relating -- have told us. one of the reasons they're in a hurry is because they need this money to get -- to give a tax break to the wealthiest people in our country this bill will have the biggest tran

we start with nancy pelosi. ms. pelosi: good afternoon, everyone. i'm honored to be here with distinguished members of the house democratic leadership as well as some of our members who are joining us. it was very interesting to see the debate today. i think there is no question that democrats won the debate. the republicans had the majority. they won the vote. but the american people now have to judge them by how they have acted. not by how we have characterized what they stand for. now they are on record. as i said, this vote will be tattooed to them, as i always said, they will glow in the dark. this is a great civics lesson for america because most people don't know who their member of congress is. well, they do now. they know them as a member of congress who made their premiums and out-of-pocket go up, have crushing age tax on those 50 to 64, have 24 million people fewer have access to health care, health insurance and, again, being very casual, undermining recklessly medicare. true to their philosophy that medicare should wither on the vine. a

nancy pelosi for talking about that, in it was a silly thing for her to say.ou have to pass the ball to find out what is in it, but the fact is they are going to pass this without getting a score, basically an analysis from the congressional budget office of what will do do to the deficit and two people having insurance coverage. we know an earlier version of this bill that over the course of the next ten years, 24 million people according to the cbo are going to lose health insurance coverage. we don't have a sense as to whether it's going to be even worse or not under this bill. it seems to me there really are two aspects to this, the political aspect and then the real world implications of it. the political aspect, this was a short a short-term win for the president and for republicans, and in a sense, they had to pass something because they had been talking as has been pointed out for several years that we have to replace and repeal obamacare, but give us keys to the house, senate, white house, and we will do that. when the first bill went down, what an em

pelosi: any other questions? once again, i want to thank our ests, as well as our ranking members, mr. scott and mr. yarmuth. and our leader on this subject, congresswoman rosa delauro. and thank all of you. this is about life and death. this is about who gets the money. and that's what you always have to look at the republican bills, it's always about follow the money. and this is about money going into the pockets of corporations and the richest people in our country at the expense of the good health of the american people. thank you all very much.

the winner is none other than nancy pelosi. the house minority leader stopped at nothing to swing against republican control in washington and eliminate the trump administration from pennsylvania far knew. now with the obamas and the clintons out of d.c., she is the tomorrow target for the right. do democrats have a prayer in 2018? in order to be victorious, you have to have a good strategy and you have to have a good villain. is nancy pelosi the best villain to pick on? >> she is being challenged by the left. and that is tearing the party -- i think it many good to shake it up. we talked about tim ryan who challenged her for the speakership. i wasn't sure if i thought he was the right person to lead at that moment. but we'll have to look at the potential to shake up the party. kennedy: nancy pelosi is being challenged and attacked by a populist and a bernie sanders clone. it's being hang up like a snow globe. which party does a better job of demonizing someone to great effect. >> republicans do a bert job of demonizing form le

nancy pelosi talked about passing the bill so you know what's in it.t's official policy of a lot of republican members, let's pass the bill to find out exactly how it woshs weeks from now. it's a reflection of the fact they seem more afraid of other republicans primarying them for not doing this rather than democrats coming after them in the general election for having done it. >> i think that's a great point. matt, if you can get to that, i asked about democrats before, they like to say there will be political repercussions for republicans here. the last democratic wave we saw was in 2006 and it was over iraq and over improprieties on the house republican side. we haven't seen a policy wave from democrats the way you've seen it again and again and again with the republicans. do we know for sure that democrats can capitalize on this as much as they thought? >> that's a good point. i think there's a lot of energy right now on the democratic side. you have an instance here with health care. democrats did a terrible job messaging on health care. they coul

in the spirit of bipartisan ship, nancy pelosi said does not fund moral and unwise border wall or create a yule new deportation force. omni bus is in sharp contrast.

on the right side of your screen there, of course, the white house, the left side, nancy pelosi.et's listen in for just a bit. >> trump care will take away health care from more than 24 million hard-working americans. a crushing age tax. trump care forces americans 50 to 64 to pay premiums five times higher than what others pay for health coverage. no matter how healthy they are. steals from medicare, steals from medicare, trump care shortens the life of medicare trust funds and ransacks funds seniors depend on to get long-term care they need. that's why it's consistent with their wither on the vine for medicare philosophy. and then, if that were not bad enough, and they couldn't pass their bill because it was that bad, they moved further away from the american people by gutting key protections. trum care eviscerates essential health benefits such as maternity care, prescription drugs, emergency coverage, prenatal care, and guts protections for americans with preexisting medical conditions. as bad as trump care was the first time around, it was dead, it died, it died right here o

nancy pelosi very, very strong in saying if members -- people back home don't know who the members of congress are they know now. you have a lot of work to do to keep your endangered members in their seats. >> the work has to do is explain. every day goes forward somebody loses health care because of obamacare. this about the individual market medicaid being able to sustain that provide to individuals and give them a choice. no longer will government control all. no longer will your premiums go up and you have a high deductible. remember the fact that more people paid the penalty and took texas elmtion than signed up for obamacare. when people sit back, read the bill, understand what's going forward to that education will work quite well. >> i was talking to one of my colleagues up here who has been around for a long time and saying something that i thought was very interesting and that is that, you know, it is very rare that congress once they have given a benefit to the american people, to take it away. i know you're saying you're changing it but it will be framed as taking it away.

nancy pelosi has a different take. listen. >> just to see this person who wants to be the one representative to the house of representatives from montana be a want-to-be trump. that is his model. we have to say come on.

(shafer) i notice you don't say president trump(pelosi) it's hard(crowd) laughs congresswoman nancy pelosigot big laughs when she explained to the commonwealth club's sold out audience why she usually sticks to the moniker, president of the united states. several of the questions she answered with during her conversation in front of the sold out audience dealt with the investigations into what russia did in the election...and what the president and his team did during the transition. she says she respects robert mueller, the former fbi director now in charge of the justice department's probe...but because he ultimately reports to trump appointed leadership...she believes americans need an investigation not tied to politics...and one that looks at the overall integrity of u-s elections.what we need to get all the facts is an outside independent commission to get the facts of the american people will except the resultsthe russians hacked leaked probably altered before they leaked to undermine our democracy our election and we can't let that happen again. so whatever happens about who was in

nancy pelosi led the charge. she remembers these numbers. she was speaker heading into this midterm election. in the next election the democrat didn't just get beat. they lost 63 house seats in the first midterm election after passing obamacare. so among the most passionate during the final hours of debate yesterday, nancy pelosi, the former speaker, now the marrijoy leader, she thinks there's a chance she'll get the gavel back. >> you vote for this bill, you have walked the plank from moderate to radical and you're walking the plank for what? a bill that will not be accepted by the united states senate. why are you doing this? do you believe in what is in this bill? some of you have said well, they'll fix it in the senate. but you have every provision of this bill tattooed on your forehead. you will glow in the dark on this one. you will glow in the dark. >> now, for most people watching at home, they care about the policy in this bill. and what is going to change in their lives and is it going to be better for their health care, better for

let me read you a part of nancy pelosi's state, if these reports are true, president trump compromised isis and jeopardized

pelosi: thank you, mr. speaker. under trumpcare, families, seniors, vulnerable children, americans with disabilities, people struggling to overcome addiction, and the sick will lose their health care. rural hospitals will be closed, nearly two million jobs will be destroyed across america. seven million veterans will lose access to tax credits for health care. and all of this to give a massive tax cut to the richest in america. trumpcare is a billionaire's tax cut disguised as a health care bill. it's robin hood in reverse. one of the largest transfers wealth from working families to the rich in our country. today we have -- within wwe honor of visions of our -- we honor the visions of our founders, we can, who risked everything. they risked everything. their lives, their liberty, their sake receipt red honor, to advance -- sacred honor, to freedom to pursue your happiness. the freedom from being job locked or policy locked because of what the republicans want to do today. today we fight to preserve affordable healt

very interesting speech on the floor right before the vote came from nancy pelosi who said republicans will have the provisions of this bill tattooed to their forehead. they will have to defend that. >> there we have it right there. the gavel comes down. the bill has passed, 217 "yes votes." >> right there for the repeal of obamacare. i want to go to mary bruce who is right off that floor of the house right there. we heard the cheers go up there, mary. we were talking about president trump, this victory for president trump. a big victory, as well, for the speaker of the house, paul ryan and they really rallied their troops together in these final hours and days. >> absolutely, george. this is a day seven years in the making for house republicans and a huge day for speaker ryan and we heard hoim moments ago tryin to give an impassioned speech that they can deliver on the central promise to the american people. knowing that many republicans were sent to washington to fulfill this pledge. i have to tell you, you have been able to feel the electricity here all morning long. the republican

who knows if leader pelosi is right.f the way the house zri districts are darawn -- to her point that they're casting this vote today blind to a degree, a report is going to come out in the next week or ten days that says "x" million americans are going to lose their coverage, the deficit will go up by this amount. people with pre-existing conditions will be better or worse off. they're asking a lot of members in tough districts to do this today with a lot of trust. >> john, i don't think they're in the blind. i think the cbo number was 24 million and suggested people who was older would have their premiums go up. getting people health care is not expanding medicaid. i think the members generally know the numbers are going to be -- the uninsured number is going to go up. people will lose their insurance. medicaid will go down to. to some members of the republican conference meadow oh we're looking at a bill that follows a lot of the core values even if it kind of looks ugly and it might raise premiums. it take the govern

anyway, it's great to be here and i wanted thank our leaders and thank you to leader pelosi who will be joining us shortly. in case you haven't had time to revie review the presidents budget, let me sum it up. it takes a sledgehammer to the middle class and working class americans, lavishes tax breaks on the wealthy and imagines all of the deficit problems away with fantasy math. this budget exists somewhere over the rainbow where the dreams of mick mulvaney, paul ryan and the coke brothers really do come true. of course, these dreams are a nightmare for the average working american. the trump budget cuts transportation funding, education funding, programs that help students repay their student debt. one of the greatest burdens on middle-class kids and something that's slowing the country's housing recovery, the trump budget which seeks more than a trillion dollars in cuts to medicaid and health care would decimate healthcare options for rule americans, children, seniors and pull the rug on many of our rural hospitals throughout the hous country. earlier, our colleague senator cornyn
