WASHINGTON—In response to the news that the Trump administration is kicking 750,000 Americans out of the Affordable Care Act insurance marketplace, Joel Payne, MoveOn Political Action’s chief communications officer, released the following statement: 

“Just six weeks out from the election, the Trump administration continues to kick working Americans while they’re down. It is sickening and unacceptable for this administration to boot 750,000 Americans off their health care instead of focusing on lowering costs and ending the war in Iran. The American people and MoveOn members won’t forget this betrayal when polls open in November.”
