obamacare does not do that.hey do not drop you or increase your premiums because it goes on your income. so i just want to let the red states know that it is their own state government that is making the prices so high. host: we will go to gary in albany, new york, independent line. caller: hello. my question is, with this build back better plan that is probably not going anywhere, but you are paying for people -- people have kids and you have to pay for child care, people who have kids pay for your own childcare, why do taxpayers have to subsidize that? and on the russian investigation that the democrats had going on for three or four years that cost how much millions and billions of dollars? adam schiff called trump a russian agent and wears his apology for that? if someday had said biden is a chinese agent they would've been in front of congress so fast their head would spin. host: that is gary in new york.

people had doubts about obamacare all the way through, and people had doubts about obamacare after ityou are, this many years later and it is successful, it's working and being improved to this day. i think it reminds people in tough times, leadership matters and you do tough things, people may not understand at the time but it proves itself out over time and i think the fact we're in an economic world war right now with russia means americans have to suffer more than we should, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel when people have stood up for freedom and when americans have maybe gotten less dependent on oil, but it's a long road. you've got to remind people, these long roads pay off. again, i can tell you personal family members, personal friends who today are alive and are healthy because of obamacare. a lot of people can tell you the same story. millions of people, and we got through that economic crisis, we'll get through this one. >> great to see you, van, thank you for coming? >> glad to be here. >> we'll see the president, the former and the current together this aft

obamacare because it wasn't popular and now barack obama wants everyone to call it obamacare becauseve got control of the congress, as biden does sort of, in numbers, that you ought to try and get your big things done up front because chances are when you head into those midterm elections, as barack obama knows in 2010 he took a shellacking, as he told us, and 2014 again, it could come back and hit you. so what they did was they tried to do -- they did the infrastructure bill. they tried to do build back better. that didn't get through because democrats couldn't agree. and maybe the other lesson is, and the former president hinted at that today, maybe you shouldn't try and do too much all at once. if you fail, go back to the well and try and get pieces of what you wanted to get done because half a loaf is better than none at all. and i think that's the lesson that biden knows. i'm not sure progressives in the party agree with him. but that's what barack obama was trying to say today to members of his own party. >> more on the road ahead from the former president. watch. >> i'm a priv

>> dana: look at polls, democrats are not satisfied with obamacare. look at polls they will say that what is their top issue? climate change, second issue is healthcare, they are never satisfied with it. one thing the republicans will do, which is to say we're not going to socialized medicine. >> jeanine: okay, kamala harris offer suffers yet another humiliaing blow, we have the details next. ♪ [♪♪] if you have diabetes, it's important to have confidence in the nutritional drink you choose. try boost glucose control®. it's clinically shown to help manage blood sugar levels and contains high quality protein to help manage hunger and support muscle health. try boost® today. i'll pick this one up. i earn 3% cash back on dining including takeout with chase freedom unlimited. so, it's not a problem at all. you guys aren't gonna give me the fake bill fight? c'mon, kev. you're earning 3% cash back. humor me. where is my wallet? i am paying. where is my wallet? i thought i gave it to you. oooohhh? oh, that's not it either. no. no. stop, i insist. that was goo

look, obamacare used to be sort of a pejorative. be a way for republicans to sort of mock the whole process. now it seems like including the former president and this president, the current president, they embrace obamacare. they like the name. it does appear to be here to stay at this point. neil? neil: i can always remember the time when nancy pelosi would call the affordable care act, affordable care act. she winced at the obamacare thing. that was then, this is now. i caught your comments over the weekend, i forget what show you were on, cnn. that is okay. you probably thought it was fox, oh, what am i doing on cnn? anyway you talked a little bit about the environment for joe biden right now and addressed the perennial concern. i want to go to that tape. >> everything the president just said we just listened is true. it is largely irrelevant. there is one number they can't really change right now, that is what the placard says at local gas station. that number is high. that is a daily jobs report that voters, american consumers

that's what the law was before obamacare., tens of millions of americans could lose their coverage, including young people who will no longer be able to stay on their parents' insurance policy to age 26. premiums are going to go through the roof. well, i got a better idea -- instead of destroying the affordable care act, let's keep building on it. [applause] let's extend it. extend. [applause] and because of all the -- all the folks in this room, the members of congress, the american rescue plan subsidies -- subsidizes that are lowering premiums -- subsidies are lowering premiums and extending coverage. and i got a little practice when you gave me that other act, you know, when we were president -- when you were president and i was with you. [laughter] look, close the medicaid coverage gap that locks nearly 4 million americans out of coverage just because their state has refused to expand medicaid. lower prescription drug costs, which was mentioned already, by allowing medicare to negotiate prices for drugs that are on the ma

you know, supreme court should not have upheld obamacare?ourts should not have upheld medicaid or medicare spending or vaccine mandates? what is saki talking about. >> i have no idea. it certainly doesn't fit with what joe biden just said. the reality courts are supposed to uphold all laws whether a law related to obamacare or related to the border. laws are to be respected if they're real laws, not made-up laws with the president. one of the thing we struggled with obamacare doing something we thought was beyond the constitutional reach of congress. elizabeth: what ken just said, congressman, how is it that a mt. can with an executive order circumvent congress when it comes to our national security? now you see a court filing indicating i.c.e. told a federal judge, the white house is expected to release 600,000 illegal aliens into the u.s. interior by the end of september? they may catch-and-release more than 3,000 illegal immigrants from, at the border every day into the u.s. interior. that is quadruple what we're seeing in march. we're se

strengthening obamacare. he's done it in multiple ways.t, he's expanded enrollment, in particular high demand for that during the pandemic and then now as a result of the most recent enrollment period, 14.5 million americans are signed up for care on the marketplaces under obamacare. that's more than ever during obama's presidency. they've also, through the american rescue plan, expanded subsidies to make it easier for people to purchase obamacare policies and they are preparing this week to unveil something called the family glitch. they're having a regulatory fix which makes more families eligible for expanded subsidies. passing the build back better or some version of it essential for continuing some of this progress because the obamacare subsidy will expire after 2022, but the president's hoping to revive that, to expand those subsidies, also to add 2 million people under medicaid in the states that have expanded. this has been a fertile territory for president biden so far and his former boss, barack obama, wants to celebrate that wit

obamacare is gaining in popularity, as you point out.rity of americans. i think it was 55% in the latest kaiser family foundation poll. a record 14.5 million people have signed up for coverage through the exchanges this year in 2022. so, gloria, do you see health care and specifically, obamacare playing into the midterm strategy for democrats? >> sure. sure. i think -- you know, you're going to brag about things that people like that you've done and tell people, let them remember, that republicans tried to get rid of it, although they couldn't. very difficult to take something away from people, once they have it. but there were many opportunities to repeal it when republicans controlled the congress. and donald trump was president. and they did not do that. so, it's a -- along with economic issues, of course, health care always plays into economic issues. people are worried about inflation right now. they're worried about gas prices. there's a war. but i think if the democrats want to tell good stories, they're going to talk about things

that was before obamacare. i remember before obamacare the cost of health care was -- in one year it would be one thing and the next year it would be 40% higher, the next it would be 40% higher, and the health care costs were spiraling out of control. i remember when obamacare came, all of a sudden it forced the health care people to lower their stuff. all of a sudden the cost went down. what i paid today, i mean -- i pay significantly less. i may not actually make more money, -- it has been x amount of years, i make more money, but i pay less for my family. in reference to the other lady, i think that there is more there. there are more details that she would have to say why. i know that there are different levels that you can choose with the american health care plan, so i would wonder what level she is on. if you choose the cheapest one you have to pay the most out-of-pocket, and a lot of your normal expenses are automatically covered. there's a lot of i believe good from the american health care plan despit

obamacare. [ applause ] it's true. i know you all know how much you cared about getting this done. through countless hours, he never ever, ever gave up. i guarantee you that. if i had time i could tell you all the times he would say should we compromise? well, we have to think about it. no, if i do that, this group of people won't get covered. whether it was after meeting during our weekly lunch, and we met every day, he would remind me why we're doing this in the first place. we're doing this in the first place for people who needed it and deserve to be treated with dignity. dignity. the idea when you can't afford health insurance for your children, for your spouse, male or female, it doesn't matter. not only are they in trouble but you're deprived of your dignity. you talked about the idea that was important that we make sure that you couldn't outrun your insurance. i can remember with beau thinking to myself what would i do if they walked in and said you've outrun your time here? 35 days live

chuck grassley was part of the effort to repeal and replace obamacare. affordable health care for my children? >> it's not repealing the affordable care act if that's your question. >> pretty quick answer there, which politically, that's smart. republicans are saying, we're done with that. >> absolutely. they tried for a while to figure out a plan that was a replacement for obamacare that would be appealing enough, and it fell flat. and they weren't able to get consensus within their own party and it wasn't popular with the public because the fact is that the public likes the affordable care act. people like having insurance coverage. things are better on the health care front than they were when that law was enacted. so republicans are now backing away from that. it won't stop them from criticizing the biden administration on what they -- they'll say they haven't done to keep health care costs down, but that's why you'll hear democrats talk about their efforts so far unsuccessful, but to get the cost of prescription drugs down, to get, for instance, thi

there's another program, the obamacare marketplaces where people who don't get insurance through workuy insurance and depending on their other income can get help from the government. the family glitch deals with people who are caught in between programs. if you can imagine a family where a single mom gets insurance at work and it's affordable for her, but if she wants to buy a family plan to cover her husband or kids, it would be too expensive, currently, they cannot buy a different plan in the obamacare market place. that has always been known as the family glitch. there are about 5 million people in this situation. some of them just pay a lot of money to all be in the family plan under an employer, some of them pay a lot of money to get a separate plan, and some are uninsured. thiss a new rule to try to solve that problem. >> and it has long been recognized as a problem that needs to be fixed. we should mention there has been some republican pushback already. many are saying this needs to go through congress. >> i think it is a little bit ambiguous. the last round of legislating wa

trump didn't want to just defeat obamacare the bill or obama the man, he wanted to defeat obama the symboltic country, a symbol that joe biden and democrats want the people to carry in their hearts, the symbol that trump and the gop want people to forget. >> how does that relate to dying a hero or living long enough to be a villain? >> well, i think for unfortunately donald trump i think in many, from the minds of many people, he is already the villain, but i do think that -- >> really. >> -- one of the things that goes to is the idea that historical legacies can change over time, you know, and barack obama when he was president, and i remember it well, you know, was a very stormy presidency. he wasn't always the most popular person in the country. you can look at -- >> which he joked about it. >> and he joked about it today and the aca is a classic example of that, where this was an incredibly unpopular piece of legislation until the american people actually experienced its benefits and actually experienced having preexisting conditions covered and not having to worry about preexisting co

obamacare. [applause] i can tell you all how much barack obama cared about getting this done. throughout the countless hours of negotiations and a relentless political attacks he never ever, ever gave up. i guarantee you that. if i had time i could tell you all the times when he would say should we compromise? i said we ought to think about that. no, i do that and so and so won't get covered. this group of people won't get covered. whether it was after meeting, during our weekly lunch, , and e met every single day, he would remind me of why we're doing this in the first place. we are doing this in the first place for people who needed it, who deserved to be treated with dignity. dignity. the idea that when you can't afford health insurance for your children, your spouse, male or female, it doesn't matter. not only are they in trouble but you are depriving your dignity. barack, you talked about the idea that was important that we make sure that you couldn't outrun your insurance. i can remember with bow thinking of myself. what would i do if they walked in and said your outrun

and also, some of the social programs for expanding medicare, childcare,e, keeping obamacare intact. those are all things i support. >> host: and the $13 billion on national security including 773 billion physically for the pentagon. those requests, tens ofof billin dollars above what was expected originally. why is that strong, why is that much money needed? >> guest: i think it's about a 5% increase. and counting the money that we are giving to ukraine. but i think the international situation is changed so dramatically over the course of the last 30 days that we want to be sureve that we are safe at he and safe abroad. and at the u.s. has stepped up under president biden to really be a leader again internationally to bring nato together to support ukraine and the surrounding countries. and to not back down from russia. so you need that strong defense. >> host: as that request starts working its way to the congressional process yesterday :we heard from president biden asking the congress once again for anen additional $22 billion for covid relief funding. republicans saying let's ge

hard to believe, it's 12 years since obamacare was signed into law, 2010, so more than 12 years.y to focus on not only what has happened since then, when it comes to obamacare, but talking about how to expand access and lower cost for families that might bed signing up for obamacare plans. his first visit to the white house since leaving office in january of 2017. biden officials say they speak fairly often but are not detailing what the conversations look like on a daily basis. >> it's not a relationship of obligation, it's one they developed a deep and close friendship during the course of their time serving together and that has continued. >> a live look at inside as we wait for the commander in chief, as well as the former president. a lot of people are asking whether or not today's visit has more to do with healthcare, but to give president biden a boost in the polls. former president obama still has the base, and talking about the polls with 55% of americans disapproving of the president's job performance compared to only 38% approval. the white house will probably welcome

that was the law before obamacare.addition tens of millions of , americans could lose their coverage including young people , who can't stay on their parents'health care until the age of 26 years old. well, i got a better idea. instead of destroying the affordable care act, let's keep building on it. let's expand on it. [cheers and applause] and because of all the folks in this room, the members of congress, the american rescue plan subsidizes -- subsidies that are low in premiums and coverage. and i got a little practice when you were president. i was with you. [laughter] look, close the medicaid coverage gap that locks americans out of coverage just because their states refuse to expand medicaid. lowering drug prices, being able to negotiate drug prices that are on the market we can do , this. we should do this. we have to do this. let me close with this. 12 years ago, at a bill signing of the affordable care act, president obama said, "we are a nation that does what is hard, what is necessary, and what is right." th

the implementation of obamacare, and medicaid extensions. by the way, thank you very much for being here. i know you have a piece out today. and that is very in harmony informative. but i like to thank all of our other witnesses to. so what is the drop in ex life expectancy say the health care programs and spending on health? and you've already talked a bit about it with ranking member allen. so what about proposals like medicare for all, and quality of care, when maybe it's something you haven't already said. >> think you are representative fox, it's a very important question. when you hear things like statistics that americans don't live as long as people in other countries. that's true. but there's a lot of differences that can account for that. surrounding behavior, social circumstances, that really is not an indictment of our health care system. when we look at things like what happens when people get cancer. where do you want to be if you have cancer? you want to be in the u.s.. cancer survival rates in the u.s. are much better than in

is these people who technically can get insurance through the obamacare market places, but they haveust found it to be unaffordable. insurance can be really expensive, so these wraparound subsidies were to help them. >> we have just marked 12 years since the passage of this massive health reform law. did it do what it said it would do? >> i think it did a lot of what it said it would do. there's no doubt it has expanded insurance coverage across the country to millions of americans who did not have the ability to get insurance before. it has also changed the nature. if you have an employer plan, you don't have to worry about an annual cap. i do think this is a large lot that has had a large impact, and in many ways, it has become so built-in to the way we think about our american health care system, i often talk to students, and they don't even believe there was a time you could not get insurance when you had a pre-existing health condition. there are millions more who have insurance but still struggle to pay their medical bills when they get sick. their health insurance may not be a

obamacare. true. if you'll don't know how much barack obama cared about getting this done, throughout the countless hours of negotiations and the relentless political attacks, he never, ever, ever gave up, and i guarantee you that. if i had time, i could tell you all the times when he would say, should we compromise? and i would say, we have to think about this. if i do that, this group of people won't get covered. and whether it was after meeting degrees our weekly lunch, we met every single day, he'd remind me why we're doing this in the first place. we're doing this in the first place for people who needed it and deserved to be treated with dignity. dignity. the idea that when you can't afford health insurance for your children, your spouse, male or female, it doesn't matter. not only are they in trouble, but you're deprived of your dignity. barack, you talked about the idea that was important, that we make sure that you couldn't outrun your insurance. i can remember there with beau, thinking to my

could you elaborate more on the problems with obamacare and these subsidies? >> so you could -- people could find this information on their own too. they can go the subsidy calculator, kaiser family foundation puts out. and yeah, i mean, you could get families that faced benchmark premiums of $50,000 or more. and importantly, a benchmark premium only covers about 70% of the plans. it is going to come with high deductibles and co-payments as well. there has to be underlying problems with the program that has caused such significant premiums. and because of the premiums are so high, the subsidies need to be so high in order for people to afford coverage. and i think we need to get out of the just increasing subsidies and we should look at what is the underlying driver of the high premiums of these. >> thank you sir. i'm out of time. mr. chairman, sorry, i yield back. >> mr. allen, thank you. we'll now go to the very distinguished gentlemen from the great state of connecticut, mr. courtney. >> thank you mr. chairman. and thank you to all the witnesses. professor

specifically focusing on the affordable care act, obamacare when he served for eight years.ite house since leaving office and today the president is going to announce what is a new federal regulation that would go in a place at the beginning of next year to address what's called the family glitch, the new federal regulation to allow families paying more than 10% of income on health insurance to receive financial help. that could provide insurance to about 200,000 uninsured people right now, give them the opportunity to gain coverage. and nearly a million americans will receive more affordable coverage. and the president is going to announce an executive order to strengthen access. but again, the back drop to all of this is the challenges, particularly domestically president biden is facing. americans saying while the war has garnered tremendous headlines and been an awful story line that this administration has been dealing with, americans, by and large, want the president to focus on pocket book issues. inflation, the cost of living and that, for them, is a top priority. >>

for the first time former president obama said it needed to be filled in all the good things in obamacare>> is more for prescription drug cost for 12 million seniors and young people to stay on the parents plan until the 26. a limited lifetime limits the put people in jail. >> the family fixed row has been put forward by the treasury department and irs it needs to be finalized the rule would go into effect in reverse 2023 republicans are saying the proposed rule is smoking used to help the president with the more popular president. listen. >> the democrats are poised to take the slack and shocking in the midterm election they need a good news story. the only way they think they can get it is to bring obama back as the de facto leader in the white house. >> president obama president biden have lunch together as they had many times in the now president was then vice president. liz: edward lawrence from the white house, thank you cruise lines no long taken on. carnival with the historic numbers and they climb aboard for the post-pandemic party. 28 minutes before it closes a rough day on wall

we'll see, yuou're right, obamacare is very popular. 55% approval rating. 30 million people signed up a reminder, president obama used the word "shellacking." let's listen. >> i'm not recommending for every future president that they take aisha lshellacking like i last night. i'm sure there are easier ways to learn the lessons. >> i'm sure they do. can obama share that to help the democrats? >> i'm sure there are limited things, they're hoping that the former president can do, as you said, shine a light on it. excite democrats that everything is not as gloom and doom there are good elements like health care. who would have thoughted aca would be celebrated like this at the white house. >> politics has funny business sometimes. >>> today up on capitol hill, ivanka trump will meet with the house committee investigating the january 6th insurrection. sources tell cnn, ivanka trump who we all know served as a senior adviser to her father is appearing voluntarily and that discussion will be held virtually. her husband jared kushner testified last week. hope to see you back here tomorrow. an

. >> the former president was there to celebrate the 12th anniversary of obamacare the visit happeningpresident biden's approval ratings are in the tank just 40% of americans approve of the job he's doing compare that to president obama who left office with nearly 60% approval nbc's senior national political correspondent sawhil kapur is here. >> yes, they did president obama back five years after he left giving democrats a pep talk celebrating the affordable care act, obamacare that was one issue he was willing to go to the mat for, willing to lose re-election for and said for a little while it looked like that might happen. that sound bite you played, he said democrats have a story to tell, they need to tell it this is something president biden has talked about as a lament from the obama administration they did not talk enough about their accomplishments and biden is determined not to repeat that mistake. president obama hinted at one of the big domestic pieces of legislation that president biden is trying to achieve and drew upon some lessons that he learned from the aca let's hear

with obamacare plans which lead to a public option and as everyone knows the public option is simply a trojan horse of medicare for all and the public opinion proposals would destroy most employers plans. the employer-sponsored insurance with a government run healthcare would be a major mistake. it would create a disincentive and the vast majority who were employer-sponsored insurance are very happy with their plans with more coverage relative to the aca plans and further when given the option 83% of employees in the u.s. choose to be on and employer-sponsored insurance plan. the attempt to undermine for affordable healthcare will cost taxpayers exponentially more. breaking promises for over a decade and throwing more money will not fix this problem. additionally, the proposed expansions would overwhelmingly they will primarily go to those that already have health insurance. president biden's bill would also allow the secretary of health and human services to negotiate if not dictate the prices of prescription medications. these price controls would reduce the incentives of companies

we all remember the lies of obamacare. say it with me. if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor. come on, this is participatory. if you like your health care plan you can keep your health care plan. matter of fact, costs are going to go down. none of that was true. and instead, american families found themselves with plans they didn't like but at least they cost more so it was a lose-lose. premiums will rise again if this bill becomes law because setting prices again has consequences. something our economically illiterate democrat friends apparently don't understand or maybe they do. american innovation has brought amazing lifesaving treatments to the health care market. that research and development comes at a cost. like any other good or product or service in this country, don't we all want the best drugs, best medicine, and best health care? instead of going with the democrat default, government knows best, one size fits all mentality, we need to embrace free market principles. the speaker pro tempore: the entergentle person's

one, president obama will talk about the importance of obamacare. as the administration left office, so that's one thing. but then the meat of it, i'm told, the bulk of what we're going to see tomorrow is talking about actually the biden administration's going to take to shore up obamacare, right. they're looking at ways to make sure that it's cheaper for folks, cost-cutting for families is a focus, and one of the things that every kind of has had their eyes on for a while is what's called the family glitch, so looking to see if the administration is going to make an announcement on that aspect of it. but it will be a big day. one of the frustrating things about covering the biden white house sometimes is the obama officials are here too so it makes it difficult to look for folks. everyone here is excited he'll be here tomorrow. >> "morning joe" senior contributor eugene daniels reporting for us at the white house. thank you very much. >>> still ahead, what do president biden, former president trump, disney, and pop-tarts all have in common? their b
