By Barbara Altman

The Affordable Care Act: Where It Began, and Where It Stands Today

By Murray L. Levin, M.D.

The Affordable Care Act has its flaws, but the Right’s attempts to undo this legislation ignore the many improvements it has brought to a deeply flawed American healthcare system.  A Hillary Clinton administration, with the support of a Congress willing to legislate, would build on Obamacare’s many virtues, to the benefit of all Americans.
