The Los Angeles Times \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-kern-river-4th-july-20170705-story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">reports\u003c/a> that over the long holiday weekend, one more person died and two others went missing. And on Saturday, crews pulled out the body of a swimmer lost to the raging waters more than a week earlier. That body was identified as belonging to Michael Ramirez, a member of the Orange County underground hip-hop group Rebellion Warfare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Emergency workers worry there will be more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is not the same river [people] may have visited last year,\" says Sgt.

Riverbanks are less stable. Vegetation and brush that had grown on low shorelines during the drought are now submerged, creating invisible, underwater hazards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I can't recommend going in the river this year. It's just insane,\" Bittle says. He adds that if you must go in the water, to be sure to take an expert guide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The power of the Kern River is partly due to geography. The Kern River draws its waters from the base of Mount Whitney, the highest point in the continental U.S., more than 2 miles above sea level. From there, the snowmelt races down narrow canyons and chutes, past Kernville, to the flat, flax-colored floor of the Central Valley below.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The drop in elevation and surrounding geology give the Kern River oomph.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/NathanRott/status/879878082366132224\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the issues with snowmelt aren't unique to Kern this year. Up and down the Sierra Nevada, waterways are flooding with snowmelt. Further up California's Central Valley, \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-kings-river-flooding-snowpack-20170626-story.html\">homeowners were evacuated\u003c/a> when the King River breached the riverbank. Reservoirs are near full.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Compounding matters is the fact that water officials aren't entirely sure how much snow there is left to melt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What we noticed during the heat wave is that the area of snow that is still covered up there didn't really reduce from one extent to the other,\" says David Rizzardo, of California's Department of Water Resources. \"There was just an incredible amount of depth. There's still probably easily 5, 10 feet of snow in some of these places.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Water officials don't really have any historical perspective to look at for guidance either, Rizzardo says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/NWSSacramento/status/879777170905858048\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two years ago, California's snowpack was 5 percent of normal. It was the lowest ever recorded. This year, the state had one of the biggest snowpacks ever recorded — \u003ca href=\"https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?feature=6815\">larger than the last four years combined\u003c/a>. The jump from one to the other has made it really difficult to forecast what rivers and the landscape are going to do. The concern water officials have is that this could become the new normal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"One of the worries with climate change is that we see extremes more often,\" Rizzardo says. \"And the extremes are even more extreme than we've seen in the past.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whitewater recreation companies like Moore's firm are well aware of the unpredictability. They're booking rafting trips and padding their wallets for possible thin years ahead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"MYgvjGDQuqXyRnkNnGiDjrmWeeImTpX3\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some customers have been scared off by the recent deaths and the river's strength.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Olivia Vantol is not one of them. The San Diego native is smiling as she hops off a raft and wades up to the shadowed banks of the Kern River on a recent day. She and her family just went over a Class III rapid on the river and the thrill of it is still in her eyes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That was my first time river rafting,\" she says. \"I chose a great year to start apparently.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post includes reporting from The Associated Press.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

Despite the delay, McConnell confirmed that Republican senators were heading to the White House to meet with President Trump later in the afternoon to continue work on the issue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If three Republicans oppose the bill, it cannot pass.

They continue.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He made the announcement during Senate Republicans’ weekly lunch, which was attended by Pence. White House Chief of Staff Reince Preibus and press secretary Sean Spicer were in the Capitol on Tuesday as well. It’s expected the bill will be altered and get a new score from the Congressional Budget Office before it comes back up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leaders had been pressing hard for a vote before the holiday. Majority Whip John Cornyn of Texas \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/JohnCornyn/status/879364669907099648\">tweeted Monday\u003c/a> morning, “I am closing the door. We need to do it this week before double-digit premium increases are announced for next year.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There has been speculation that McConnell had been prepared to bring the bill to the floor, even if it can’t pass, so the Senate can move onto its next big priority: tax reform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said late Monday that \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/SenatorCollins/status/879471862694256641\">she would vote “no” on a motion to proceed\u003c/a>, a procedural step that needs to be taken before a floor debate can even begin on the bill. If two more Republicans were to have voted no on that motion, the bill would have died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/SenatorCollins/status/879472221202391040\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Collins cited \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/06/26/534432433/gop-senate-bill-would-cut-health-care-coverage-by-22-million\">a report from the Congressional Budget Office released Monday\u003c/a> that said the bill would result in 22 million fewer people with health care coverage over the next decade, compared with under the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare. Much of that reduction would be because of the rollback of the ACA’s expansion of Medicaid, which Collins and other Republicans in states that took up the expansion funds have expressed serious reservations over.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski had similar concerns to Collins. “I need to understand really what we’re talking about, with some of the conclusions that we saw yesterday with the CBO score,” she told MSNBC. “Taking the time to get it right is where we should be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats held a protest on Capitol Hill Tuesday. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer told reporters, “We know the fight is not over. That is for sure. We’re not resting on any laurels, nor do we feel any sense yet of accomplishment, other than we are making progress because the American people are listening to our arguments.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the hurdle for McConnell remains divisions within his own party. Conservative Republicans, including Sens. Mike Lee of Utah, Ted Cruz of Texas and Rand Paul of Kentucky, had indicated they were very likely to vote no, as they push for greater spending cuts and reduction of regulations on health insurers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other GOP senators who appear strongly opposed include Dean Heller of Nevada, who excoriated the bill at a press conference on Friday mostly over its cuts, and Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, who had been urging leaders to wait on a vote until after next week’s recess.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”VhSZnQ7oBkrgFZuGgGq7e9zxZLKy1E33″]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The House failed to advance a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare in late March, and it was seen as a spectacular failure on the GOP’s most persistent pledge to voters for the past seven years. After rounds of negotiations and amendments, the House passed its bill in early May.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The outlook for delaying the bill is tricky. Leaders have been insistent that they need to move on to other issues. To take up tax reform or funding the government in 2018, Senate procedure would require them to scrap the health care effort altogether.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans have expressed grave warnings about what that could mean politically. Polls have shown the Republican health care effort is very unpopular overall, with even GOP support for the House bill at just 34 percent in an NBC/Wall Street Journal poll released last week. But that same poll showed that 71 percent of Republicans support repealing the Affordable Care Act, and it would be risky for the GOP to head into the 2018 midterms having failed their base on that pledge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would not bet against Mitch McConnell,” House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., told reporters Tuesday morning when asked about the bill’s fate — but before news broke of McConnell’s announcement that he was pushing the vote back. “He is very, very good at getting things done through the Senate, even with this razor-thin majority. I have every expectation that the Senate — I don’t know what day —but I have every expectation the Senate will move this bill.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The speaker nodded to the political pressure the party is under to deliver on their signature campaign pledge. “Every Republican senator campaigned on repealing and replacing this law,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”hapQ6Vi3wewi0oe57liVFWkEYjgs7zWs”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Senate bill repeals the individual mandate to carry health care coverage and the employer mandate for businesses with at least 50 employees to offer coverage. It also repeals most of the taxes enacted under the ACA, which mostly affect high-income earners and corporations, in addition to rolling back federal subsidies and the expansion of Medicaid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It would allow people up to age 26 to remain on their parents’ plans, and it would bar insurance companies from denying coverage to those with pre-existing conditions. Republicans revised the bill on Monday to add a penalty aimed at preventing people from signing up for coverage only once they are sick, which most experts predict would sink the insurance market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m a ‘no’ on it unless the bill changes,” Paul said to reporters on Monday. He has called the bill “Obamacare Lite” and is seeking a fuller rollback of the ACA. But the changes he wants seem unlikely to be included or would risk losing too many moderates because they would further reduce benefits from the federal government. Paul had a noon meeting at the White House scheduled on Tuesday, at which Trump had been expected to appeal for his support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One frequent critic of Trump, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., was quoted by \u003cem>The Hill\u003c/em> as saying Monday, “If you’re counting on the president to have your back, you need to watch it.” The president confirmed reports last week that he had privately criticized the House version of the health care bill as “mean,” even though he invited Ryan and members of the House GOP leadership over to the White House Rose Garden for a celebration after it passed. Graham also has said that waiting until after next week’s recess is not likely to make it any easier to pass a bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House led criticism of the CBO report on Monday, assailing its ability to estimate effects on coverage. But Ryan defended the Congressional Budget Office, which has also come under fire by outside conservatives and some Republicans in Congress. “It is important that we have a scorekeeper,” he said. “We can always complain about the nature of the score. I think their coverage numbers — there’s more to the story than the number implies. Having said that, it’s important that we have a referee.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many Republicans have taken issue with the CBO forecast, arguing that they believe more Americans will be inclined to sign up if cheaper plans are available. Republicans often note that millions of Americans have opted to pay fines in lieu of signing up for coverage under the ACA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>NPR’s Susan Davis contributed to this report. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

In its order, the court stated, \"the balance tips in favor of the Government's compelling need to provide for the Nation's security.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Saying the petitions and injunctions \"are accordingly ripe for consideration,\" the Supreme Court said on Monday that the cases will be consolidated. The court's clerk will set a date for the case in the session that begins in October, the justices said, while noting that the Trump administration \"has not requested that we expedite consideration of the merits to a greater extent.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorney General Jeff Sessions said that today's move is \"an important step towards restoring the separation of powers between the branches of the federal government.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omar Jadwat, director of the ACLU's Immigrants' Rights Project, called the travel ban unconstitutional, saying, \"Courts have repeatedly blocked this indefensible and discriminatory ban. The Supreme Court now has a chance to permanently strike it down.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement released by the White House, Trump wrote:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"As President, I cannot allow people into our country who want to do us harm. I want people who can love the United States and all of its citizens, and who will be hardworking and productive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My number one responsibility as Commander in Chief is to keep the American people safe. Today's ruling allows me to use an important tool for protecting our Nation's homeland. I am also particularly gratified that the Supreme Court's decision was 9-0.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The court says its nine justices agreed in the 13-page decision to take the case and place stays on some of the preliminary injunctions. But several justices wanted to go further — Justice Clarence Thomas wrote a three-page opinion, joined by Justices Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch, in which he said the government's request for a stay should have been granted in full.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I agree with the Court's implicit conclusion that the Government has made a strong showing that it is likely to succeed on the merits,\" Thomas wrote, \"that is, that the judgments below will be reversed.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thomas criticized the decision to keep the injunctions in place for what he called \"an unidentified, unnamed group of foreign nationals abroad,\" saying it places a burden on officials to determine who has a \"bona fide relationship\" with a person or organization in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In March, Trump's executive order was put on hold by lower court judges in Hawaii and Maryland hours before it was set to take effect. Two federal appeals courts left those nationwide injunctions in place, setting up one final appeal for the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House argues that this executive order, like the previous version the president signed in January, is necessary to protect national security. The initial version caused chaos at airports across the country until it was blocked by a federal judge in Washington state, prompting the administration to craft a revised version that omitted references to religion and specifically exempted green card holders. But that order, too, was challenged by lawsuits, and it was blocked by lower courts before it ever went into effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As part of its instructions to the parties in the case, the high court said today that they should answer the question of \"Whether the challenges ... became moot on June 14, 2017\" — referring to the order's timeframe of 90 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both of the federal appeals courts that have considered the revised executive order have ruled against the administration — but for different reasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The appellate judges weren't directly ruling on the merits of the travel ban itself. But in order to decide if the lower court injunctions were appropriate, they had to weigh the probable impact of the order and the likelihood that the legal challenges would succeed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/05/25/530051807/4th-circuit-court-ruling-keeps-trumps-travel-ban-on-hold\">The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals\u003c/a> looked extensively at whether the travel ban violated the Constitution by discriminating on the basis of religion. The challengers in that case, led by the nonprofit International Refugee Assistance Project, argued that the travel ban is a thinly veiled attempt to block Muslims from entering the country, something Trump and his advisers talked about during and after the presidential campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawyers for the Department of Justice countered that courts should look only at the language of the executive order itself, which does not mention religion explicitly. But that argument did not prevail. Writing for the 10-3 majority, Chief Judge Roger Gregory said the executive order \"speaks with vague words of national security but in context drips with religious intolerance.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling from the \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/06/12/532620714/another-federal-appeals-court-says-trumps-travel-ban-should-remain-on-hold\">9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals\u003c/a> focused on federal law. The court found that the president likely exceeded his statutory authority under the Immigration and Nationality Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The order does not offer a sufficient justification to suspend the entry of more than 180 million people on the basis of nationality,\" the 9th Circuit judges wrote. \"National security is not a 'talismanic incantation' that, once invoked, can support any and all exercise of executive power.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration moved quickly to appeal both rulings to the Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The Executive Branch is entrusted with the responsibility to keep the country safe under Article II of the Constitution,\" U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions said in a statement after the 9th Circuit ruling. Sessions called the threat of terrorism \"immediate and real,\" and said the lower court's injunction \"has a chilling effect on security operations overall.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

In its order, the court stated, \"the balance tips in favor of the Government's compelling need to provide for the Nation's security.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Saying the petitions and injunctions \"are accordingly ripe for consideration,\" the Supreme Court said on Monday that the cases will be consolidated. The court's clerk will set a date for the case in the session that begins in October, the justices said, while noting that the Trump administration \"has not requested that we expedite consideration of the merits to a greater extent.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorney General Jeff Sessions said that today's move is \"an important step towards restoring the separation of powers between the branches of the federal government.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omar Jadwat, director of the ACLU's Immigrants' Rights Project, called the travel ban unconstitutional, saying, \"Courts have repeatedly blocked this indefensible and discriminatory ban. The Supreme Court now has a chance to permanently strike it down.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement released by the White House, Trump wrote:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"As President, I cannot allow people into our country who want to do us harm. I want people who can love the United States and all of its citizens, and who will be hardworking and productive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My number one responsibility as Commander in Chief is to keep the American people safe. Today's ruling allows me to use an important tool for protecting our Nation's homeland. I am also particularly gratified that the Supreme Court's decision was 9-0.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The court says its nine justices agreed in the 13-page decision to take the case and place stays on some of the preliminary injunctions. But several justices wanted to go further — Justice Clarence Thomas wrote a three-page opinion, joined by Justices Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch, in which he said the government's request for a stay should have been granted in full.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I agree with the Court's implicit conclusion that the Government has made a strong showing that it is likely to succeed on the merits,\" Thomas wrote, \"that is, that the judgments below will be reversed.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thomas criticized the decision to keep the injunctions in place for what he called \"an unidentified, unnamed group of foreign nationals abroad,\" saying it places a burden on officials to determine who has a \"bona fide relationship\" with a person or organization in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In March, Trump's executive order was put on hold by lower court judges in Hawaii and Maryland hours before it was set to take effect. Two federal appeals courts left those nationwide injunctions in place, setting up one final appeal for the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House argues that this executive order, like the previous version the president signed in January, is necessary to protect national security. The initial version caused chaos at airports across the country until it was blocked by a federal judge in Washington state, prompting the administration to craft a revised version that omitted references to religion and specifically exempted green card holders. But that order, too, was challenged by lawsuits, and it was blocked by lower courts before it ever went into effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As part of its instructions to the parties in the case, the high court said today that they should answer the question of \"Whether the challenges ... became moot on June 14, 2017\" — referring to the order's timeframe of 90 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both of the federal appeals courts that have considered the revised executive order have ruled against the administration — but for different reasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The appellate judges weren't directly ruling on the merits of the travel ban itself. But in order to decide if the lower court injunctions were appropriate, they had to weigh the probable impact of the order and the likelihood that the legal challenges would succeed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/05/25/530051807/4th-circuit-court-ruling-keeps-trumps-travel-ban-on-hold\">The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals\u003c/a> looked extensively at whether the travel ban violated the Constitution by discriminating on the basis of religion. The challengers in that case, led by the nonprofit International Refugee Assistance Project, argued that the travel ban is a thinly veiled attempt to block Muslims from entering the country, something Trump and his advisers talked about during and after the presidential campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawyers for the Department of Justice countered that courts should look only at the language of the executive order itself, which does not mention religion explicitly. But that argument did not prevail. Writing for the 10-3 majority, Chief Judge Roger Gregory said the executive order \"speaks with vague words of national security but in context drips with religious intolerance.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling from the \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/06/12/532620714/another-federal-appeals-court-says-trumps-travel-ban-should-remain-on-hold\">9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals\u003c/a> focused on federal law. The court found that the president likely exceeded his statutory authority under the Immigration and Nationality Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The order does not offer a sufficient justification to suspend the entry of more than 180 million people on the basis of nationality,\" the 9th Circuit judges wrote. \"National security is not a 'talismanic incantation' that, once invoked, can support any and all exercise of executive power.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration moved quickly to appeal both rulings to the Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Rand Paul, R-Ky.; Ted Cruz, R-Texas; Mike Lee, R-Utah; and Ron Johnson, R-Wis., said in a statement Thursday afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”Js5fAdImbZVCutUZd0YxgZDWm1KtJNvA”]With Republicans in the Senate holding only a 52-48 seat edge, they can afford only two defections to get to a 50-50 tie, allowing Vice President Pence to then presumably break any logjam. However, the four senators do appear open to negotiations and amendments that could turn their “no” to a “yes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are provisions in this draft that represent an improvement to our current healthcare system but it does not appear this draft as written will accomplish the most important promise that we made to Americans: to repeal Obamacare and lower their healthcare costs,” the quartet continued in their statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Tea Party-aligned group FreedomWorks also said in s statement that the bill doesn’t live up to promises by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., of a full repeal of the ACA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Unfortunately, the Senate bill is an amendment to Obamacare, not a repeal of it,” said FreedomWorks President Adam Brandon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Termed the “Better Care Reconciliation Act,” the Senate’s answer to the House’s efforts to repeal and replace the ACA was finally released Thursday morning after weeks of secret negotiations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As NPR’s Danielle Kurtzleben \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/06/22/533947844/senate-republicans-reveal-long-awaited-affordable-care-act-repeal-bill\">reports\u003c/a>, the BCRA is similar in many ways to the House’s health care alternative, the American Health Care Act, that passed last month. The bill “rolls back the ACA’s Medicaid expansion — making for deep spending cuts to that program, compared with current law. The Senate bill also proposes eliminating many ACA taxes, and the employer penalties associated with the employer and individual mandates would be repealed retroactively, dating to the start of 2016. And as in the House bill, young adults up to the age of 26 could stay on their parents’ health care plans.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill in its current form may not just alienate conservative voters who think it doesn’t go far enough but also may not assuage moderates enough to get their votes, either.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Dean Heller, R-Nev., who faces a competitive re-election race in 2018, says he has “serious concerns about the bill’s impact on the Nevadans who depend on Medicaid.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As I have consistently stated, if the bill is good for Nevada, I’ll vote for it and if it’s not — I won’t,” Heller said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Annie Clark, a spokeswoman for Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said the centrist has some misgivings about the bills as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Sen.

She has a number of concerns and will be particularly interested in examining the forthcoming CBO analysis on the impact on insurance coverage, the effect on insurance premiums, and the changes in the Medicaid program,” Clark said. “She has met with and heard the concerns of many Mainers about their health care challenges, and she will continue to do so as she studies the impact of this legislation on Maine and the nation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Predictably, Democrats were firm in their opposition to the GOP bill. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., didn’t mince words when she ripped into the bill on the Senate floor earlier Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These cuts are blood money. People will die,” Warren said. “Let’s be very clear. Senate Republicans are paying for tax cuts for the wealthy with American lives.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said that the new Republican bill was “every bit as bad as the House bill” and “even worse” in some ways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This bill will result in higher costs, less care and millions of Americans will lose their health insurance, particularly through Medicaid,” Schumer said. “The way this bill cuts health care is heartless.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former President Barack Obama, whose signature legislation is the target of GOP repeal efforts, wrote in a lengthy \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/barackobama/posts/10154996557026749\">Facebook\u003c/a> post that the Republican plan “is not a health care bill.”\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“It’s a massive transfer of wealth from middle-class and poor families to the richest people in America.

The Senate bill, called the \"Better Care Reconciliation Act,\" would repeal major parts of the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare. The broad outlines of it look a lot like the House bill, the American Health Care Act, which was passed in May.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a lot of ways, the Senate's bill looks like the House bill: It rolls back the ACA's Medicaid expansion — making for deep spending cuts to that program, compared to current law. The Senate bill also proposes eliminating many ACA taxes, and the employer penalties associated with the employer and individual mandates would be repealed retroactively, dating back to the start of 2016. And like the House bill, young adults up to the age of 26 could stay on their parents' health care plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Larry Levitt, a health policy expert at the Kaiser Family Foundation, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/larry_levitt/status/877910700315729920\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">summed up his thoughts on the bill\u003c/a> on Twitter on Thursday: \"In broad strokes, the Senate bill is just like the House: Big tax cuts, big cut in federal heath spending, big increase in the uninsured.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As with the House bill, the Senate proposal also allows insurance companies to charge older people five times more than younger people — under the ACA, that ratio is 3 to 1. That's just one provision that could hit older Americans hard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A small group of Republican senators has written the bill in secret in recent weeks, with many Americans and even some fellow Republicans eagerly awaiting details about what's in the bill. After the bill was released on Thursday, protesters gathered outside Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's office. \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/NBCNightlyNews/status/877915310526939136\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Video from NBC\u003c/a> showed police removing some of those protesters from the hallway.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/NBCNightlyNews/status/877915310526939136\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Big Changes to Medicaid\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Some of the biggest changes this bill makes are to Medicaid, the entitlement program that provides health care to low-income Americans. In that sense, it looks like the House bill, which the CBO said would cut Medicaid by $834 billion over a decade (relative to current law), with a loss of 14 million beneficiaries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both bills roll back a Medicaid expansion undertaken under the Affordable Care Act. That law extended the program to some low-income Americans above the poverty level. The Senate proposal would roll back that expansion, though it would do so more slowly than the House bill proposes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As with the House, the Senate also proposes giving states either a per capita cap on Medicaid spending or a block grant of funds. That's a fundamental change; currently the program is \"\u003ca href=\"http://www.commonwealthfund.org/publications/newsletters/headlines-in-health-policy/2017/jan/january-23-2017/medicaid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">open-ended\u003c/a>,\" meaning funding increases as need increases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there's another change on top of that. Those caps would vary based on the rate of inflation, and the inflation rate the Senate would attach to those caps is one that is lower than the inflation rate the House attached.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That might sound like a minor wonky change, but it's not, says one former Medicaid administrator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That's a big deal. It's a big shift,\" said John Corlett, president of the Center for Community Solutions who also served as a director of Ohio's Medicaid program. \"It means billions of dollars less in federal aid to states for their Medicaid programs.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Tax Cuts for Richer Americans\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Senate bill is also much like the House bill in that it would repeal most of the taxes associated with Obamacare. (It would bump out the implementation of the so-called \"Cadillac Tax\" on expensive, employer-sponsored health care plans, from 2025 to 2026.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Repealing those taxes, as the \u003ca href=\"http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/taxvox/new-cbo-ahca-score-confirms-what-we-already-knew\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tax Policy Center reported\u003c/a> in May (regarding the AHCA), would overwhelmingly benefit higher-income Americans. The taxes in Obamacare were largely progressive, as Kyle Pomerleau of the right-leaning Tax Foundation told NPR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To one health policy expert, those tax cuts, combined with the cuts to Medicaid, mean the bill isn't a health care overhaul.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is a tax cut bill, and they had to find a way to finance it, and Medicaid beneficiaries are going to be the ones who hurt,\" said Nicholas Bagley, a University of Michigan Law School professor who specializes in health law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are a few other ways the Senate bill mirrors the House bill. It bans the use of any federal funds for any health care plan that covers abortion, except in the cases of rape, incest or where the pregnancy puts the mother's life in danger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of 2020, the bill also eliminates cost-sharing subsidies that help low-income Americans pay for their insurance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it also has some key differences from the House bill. For example, it cuts the upper-income limit that determines who gets premium tax credits. Currently, that upper limit is at 400 percent of the poverty level. This bill would limit that to 350 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Senate's proposal allows states substantial freedom in determining their own health care programs — even more freedom than the House bill allows for. Under the Affordable Care Act, states can apply for \"innovation waivers\" exempting them from parts of the law and allowing them to determine their own health care systems, to an extent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, there are strict rules in place stating that states getting those waivers must provide coverage that is \"at least as comprehensive\" as they would be otherwise, as the \u003ca href=\"https://www.cms.gov/CCIIO/Programs-and-Initiatives/State-Innovation-Waivers/Section_1332_State_Innovation_Waivers-.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services\u003c/a> explains.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Senate proposal greatly widens that loophole, saying that states can get those waivers, provided their alternate plans simply don't grow the deficit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[documentcloud url=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3872487-SenateHCBill\" notes=\"true\" text=\"true\" search=\"true\" sidebar=\"true\" pdf=\"true\" responsive=\"true\" page=\"1\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

The Senate bill, called the \"Better Care Reconciliation Act,\" would repeal major parts of the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare. The broad outlines of it look a lot like the House bill, the American Health Care Act, which was passed in May.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a lot of ways, the Senate's bill looks like the House bill: It rolls back the ACA's Medicaid expansion — making for deep spending cuts to that program, compared to current law. The Senate bill also proposes eliminating many ACA taxes, and the employer penalties associated with the employer and individual mandates would be repealed retroactively, dating back to the start of 2016. And like the House bill, young adults up to the age of 26 could stay on their parents' health care plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Larry Levitt, a health policy expert at the Kaiser Family Foundation, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/larry_levitt/status/877910700315729920\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">summed up his thoughts on the bill\u003c/a> on Twitter on Thursday: \"In broad strokes, the Senate bill is just like the House: Big tax cuts, big cut in federal heath spending, big increase in the uninsured.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As with the House bill, the Senate proposal also allows insurance companies to charge older people five times more than younger people — under the ACA, that ratio is 3 to 1. That's just one provision that could hit older Americans hard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

After the bill was released on Thursday, protesters gathered outside Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's office. \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/NBCNightlyNews/status/877915310526939136\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Video from NBC\u003c/a> showed police removing some of those protesters from the hallway.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\n\u003ch3>Big Changes to Medicaid\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Some of the biggest changes this bill makes are to Medicaid, the entitlement program that provides health care to low-income Americans. In that sense, it looks like the House bill, which the CBO said would cut Medicaid by $834 billion over a decade (relative to current law), with a loss of 14 million beneficiaries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both bills roll back a Medicaid expansion undertaken under the Affordable Care Act. That law extended the program to some low-income Americans above the poverty level. The Senate proposal would roll back that expansion, though it would do so more slowly than the House bill proposes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As with the House, the Senate also proposes giving states either a per capita cap on Medicaid spending or a block grant of funds. That's a fundamental change; currently the program is \"\u003ca href=\"http://www.commonwealthfund.org/publications/newsletters/headlines-in-health-policy/2017/jan/january-23-2017/medicaid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">open-ended\u003c/a>,\" meaning funding increases as need increases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there's another change on top of that. Those caps would vary based on the rate of inflation, and the inflation rate the Senate would attach to those caps is one that is lower than the inflation rate the House attached.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That might sound like a minor wonky change, but it's not, says one former Medicaid administrator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That's a big deal. It's a big shift,\" said John Corlett, president of the Center for Community Solutions who also served as a director of Ohio's Medicaid program. \"It means billions of dollars less in federal aid to states for their Medicaid programs.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Tax Cuts for Richer Americans\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Senate bill is also much like the House bill in that it would repeal most of the taxes associated with Obamacare. (It would bump out the implementation of the so-called \"Cadillac Tax\" on expensive, employer-sponsored health care plans, from 2025 to 2026.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Repealing those taxes, as the \u003ca href=\"http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/taxvox/new-cbo-ahca-score-confirms-what-we-already-knew\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tax Policy Center reported\u003c/a> in May (regarding the AHCA), would overwhelmingly benefit higher-income Americans. The taxes in Obamacare were largely progressive, as Kyle Pomerleau of the right-leaning Tax Foundation told NPR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To one health policy expert, those tax cuts, combined with the cuts to Medicaid, mean the bill isn't a health care overhaul.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is a tax cut bill, and they had to find a way to finance it, and Medicaid beneficiaries are going to be the ones who hurt,\" said Nicholas Bagley, a University of Michigan Law School professor who specializes in health law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are a few other ways the Senate bill mirrors the House bill. It bans the use of any federal funds for any health care plan that covers abortion, except in the cases of rape, incest or where the pregnancy puts the mother's life in danger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of 2020, the bill also eliminates cost-sharing subsidies that help low-income Americans pay for their insurance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it also has some key differences from the House bill. For example, it cuts the upper-income limit that determines who gets premium tax credits. Currently, that upper limit is at 400 percent of the poverty level. This bill would limit that to 350 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Senate's proposal allows states substantial freedom in determining their own health care programs — even more freedom than the House bill allows for. Under the Affordable Care Act, states can apply for \"innovation waivers\" exempting them from parts of the law and allowing them to determine their own health care systems, to an extent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, there are strict rules in place stating that states getting those waivers must provide coverage that is \"at least as comprehensive\" as they would be otherwise, as the \u003ca href=\"https://www.cms.gov/CCIIO/Programs-and-Initiatives/State-Innovation-Waivers/Section_1332_State_Innovation_Waivers-.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services\u003c/a> explains.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Senate proposal greatly widens that loophole, saying that states can get those waivers, provided their alternate plans simply don't grow the deficit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
