Democrats and other supporters of the Affordable Care Act strongly dispute that it’s been the disaster depicted by Trump and Republicans, and say scrapping it risks leaving millions of people uninsured if the replacement plan has shortcomings. Some critics have also said GOP rhetoric is creating uncertainty about the future.
Pence didn’t take press questions and didn’t mention during his public comments in Ohio the political storm back in Washington over Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Russian contacts during the presidential campaign.
Some two dozen people protested Pence’s visit from across the street. One sign read, “They are lying.” One man loudly yelled: “Boo, Mike Pence.”
