House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi slammed a leaked draft plan to repeal and replace Obamacare, saying it cuts coverage and amounts to a tax break for the wealthy.

"While Republicans hide from their constituents, they are moving down an increasingly cruel path to raise taxes on middle-class families and dismantle Americans' right to affordable health care," she said Friday.

Pelosi's statement comes a few hours after leaked draft legislation was released by Politico Friday. The draft, dated Feb. 10, would cut Obamacare's mandates and taxes and pay for a replacement by capping tax breaks on employer-sponsored health plans.

"The latest Republican reconciliation bill will result in millions of Americans losing their health coverage and shorten the life of the Medicare Trust Fund," Pelosi said

Repeal it all. The Bolshies thought it was free health care, so they need to pay the piper. Pre-existing conditions are insurance fraud. Kids until age 26 is not a benefit.

Somebody please ask that witch if Obamacare is so great, why did she and her fellow politicians exempt themselves from it?
Republicans better ignore all this crap from the left and repeal Obamacare ASAP. I don’t care if they have a replacement ready or not. The money the government and all of us would save from ditching Obamacare would go a long way towards helping people with medical bills if they need help.
