"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

Among those responses: providing health and hygiene services at some encampments; creating an on-site navigation center where counseling and housing services can help find people permanent homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Homeless and housing advocates – including\u003ca href=\"http://www.ebho.org/\"> East Bay Housing Organizations\u003c/a> – support some level of immediate spending on keeping encampments safe and clean. But Oakland officials need to strike a balance between short- and long-term solutions, they say.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Absolutely, I think we need some resources set aside for making sure the encampments are compassionate,” said Gloria Bruce, executive director of EBHO, the top local affordable housing advocate. “We’re just really concerned that it’s shortsighted for the City Council to say we’re going to show that we’re addressing homelessness by putting money into these short-term services because affordable housing is the solution to homelessness,” said\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Two Bond Measures Aren’t Enough\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>If housing is the solution, Oakland is in a hole. State and federal governments have been cutting funds that cities were using for affordable housing over the years. Alameda County has lost about 74 percent of its state and federal affordable housing funding since 2008, according to the \u003ca href=\"http://1p08d91kd0c03rlxhmhtydpr.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Alameda-County-2017.pdf\">California Housing Partnership Corp\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voters in Alameda County passed a $580 million affordable housing bond measure last fall, while Oakland voters also passed a measure that included $100 million for affordable housing. At least 20 percent of both bonds have to go to housing for extremely low-income households. These are the dollars that will serve the homeless population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They are not enough, but they are an excellent start,” said Elaine de Coligny, executive director of EveryOne Home, which manages Alameda County’s homeless care system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The amount of housing the bonds will generate is difficult to estimate, depending on land prices and project negotiations. But in general, lower-income housing costs more to build and often requires subsidies like government vouchers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Housing experts estimate the county bond could create hundreds of units, maybe more than a thousand, for homeless residents. But the need is likely more than 10 times that amount, said de Coligny.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is shocking and disheartening — but not unbelievable — that after 20-plus years of spending increasingly less on housing, we are that far behind,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland also needs to create more affordable housing where residents also receive social service supports. Permanent supportive housing is often touted by advocates as being the answer to solving homelessness, but it’s expensive. It costs thousands of dollars per person annually to maintain, although there are cost savings from fewer emergency room visits and reduced incarceration that more than make up those costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lataisha Cork, who uses a wheelchair to get around her encampment underneath Interstate 580 in West Oakland, said she needs these kinds of supports and was getting them in a rehab program she was in for a couple of years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Your medications come on time, you eat there, you’ve got different friends, you go on trips, outings,” she said. “I miss it so much. I regret it. I left because I thought I could make it on my own.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Oakland’s First Priority Is to Get People Off Streets, Temporarily\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Oakland City Council has committed $14 million to purchase at least one building to create a temporary residence for about 300 people annually who will receive counseling and housing services to get them into permanent homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A similar “navigation center” program exists in Oakland. It’s run by Bay Area Community Services through the downtown Henry Robinson facility and had more than an 80 percent success rate at finding housing solutions for those it served last year. In many cases, people didn’t have housing vouchers or program subsidies to help them pay rent, said Daniel Cooperman, program director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s about finding unique solutions,” he said. “A lot of it is a single room in a single-family residence, or matching people up with roommates,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cooperman said if BACS was able to operate a second Henry Robinson facility he’s confident the program would be just as successful. But he acknowledges that finding people permanent homes is more difficult when more people are searching.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>How Encampments Are Trying to Survive\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, tension around encampments is growing. In data provided to KQED, the Oakland Fire Department reports there were 58 fires related to homeless encampments in 2016. Through mid-June 2017, there have already been 50 incidents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11442422\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11442422\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-520x390.jpg 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oakland city crews asked residents at the sanctioned homeless encampment at 35th and Peralta streets to clear their belongings on May 5, 2017, after a fire broke out on the evening of May 1. \u003ccite>(Devin Katayama/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Most of these incidents aren’t burning tents — rather, firefighters could be responding to an open flame or a trashcan fire, a fire spokesman said.

But Oakland officials need to strike a balance between short- and long-term solutions, they say.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Absolutely, I think we need some resources set aside for making sure the encampments are compassionate,” said Gloria Bruce, executive director of EBHO, the top local affordable housing advocate. “We’re just really concerned that it’s shortsighted for the City Council to say we’re going to show that we’re addressing homelessness by putting money into these short-term services because affordable housing is the solution to homelessness,” said\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Two Bond Measures Aren’t Enough\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>If housing is the solution, Oakland is in a hole. State and federal governments have been cutting funds that cities were using for affordable housing over the years. Alameda County has lost about 74 percent of its state and federal affordable housing funding since 2008, according to the \u003ca href=\"http://1p08d91kd0c03rlxhmhtydpr.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Alameda-County-2017.pdf\">California Housing Partnership Corp\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voters in Alameda County passed a $580 million affordable housing bond measure last fall, while Oakland voters also passed a measure that included $100 million for affordable housing. At least 20 percent of both bonds have to go to housing for extremely low-income households. These are the dollars that will serve the homeless population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They are not enough, but they are an excellent start,” said Elaine de Coligny, executive director of EveryOne Home, which manages Alameda County’s homeless care system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The amount of housing the bonds will generate is difficult to estimate, depending on land prices and project negotiations. But in general, lower-income housing costs more to build and often requires subsidies like government vouchers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Housing experts estimate the county bond could create hundreds of units, maybe more than a thousand, for homeless residents. But the need is likely more than 10 times that amount, said de Coligny.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is shocking and disheartening — but not unbelievable — that after 20-plus years of spending increasingly less on housing, we are that far behind,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland also needs to create more affordable housing where residents also receive social service supports. Permanent supportive housing is often touted by advocates as being the answer to solving homelessness, but it’s expensive. It costs thousands of dollars per person annually to maintain, although there are cost savings from fewer emergency room visits and reduced incarceration that more than make up those costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lataisha Cork, who uses a wheelchair to get around her encampment underneath Interstate 580 in West Oakland, said she needs these kinds of supports and was getting them in a rehab program she was in for a couple of years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Your medications come on time, you eat there, you’ve got different friends, you go on trips, outings,” she said. “I miss it so much. I regret it. I left because I thought I could make it on my own.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Oakland’s First Priority Is to Get People Off Streets, Temporarily\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Oakland City Council has committed $14 million to purchase at least one building to create a temporary residence for about 300 people annually who will receive counseling and housing services to get them into permanent homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A similar “navigation center” program exists in Oakland. It’s run by Bay Area Community Services through the downtown Henry Robinson facility and had more than an 80 percent success rate at finding housing solutions for those it served last year. In many cases, people didn’t have housing vouchers or program subsidies to help them pay rent, said Daniel Cooperman, program director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s about finding unique solutions,” he said. “A lot of it is a single room in a single-family residence, or matching people up with roommates,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cooperman said if BACS was able to operate a second Henry Robinson facility he’s confident the program would be just as successful. But he acknowledges that finding people permanent homes is more difficult when more people are searching.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>How Encampments Are Trying to Survive\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, tension around encampments is growing. In data provided to KQED, the Oakland Fire Department reports there were 58 fires related to homeless encampments in 2016. Through mid-June 2017, there have already been 50 incidents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11442422\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11442422\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634-520x390.jpg 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1634.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oakland city crews asked residents at the sanctioned homeless encampment at 35th and Peralta streets to clear their belongings on May 5, 2017, after a fire broke out on the evening of May 1. \u003ccite>(Devin Katayama/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Most of these incidents aren’t burning tents — rather, firefighters could be responding to an open flame or a trashcan fire, a fire spokesman said.

Supervisor Hillary Ronen said she is drafting that legislation now, and today will hold a hearing to examine the report and what San Francisco can do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said the bail system is predicated on a promise to protect public safety -- but it’s not doing that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It just allows people with means to buy their freedom, and poor people to get even deeper into the hole, by having to pay these large nonrefundable fees to the bail industry. And the people who are paying those fees are nine times out of 10 women,\" Ronen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of those women, she said, aren't accused of a crime -- they are trying to help a loved one. And, Ronen says, those women often end up on a payment plan that could last longer than that loved one’s court case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This issue impacts mothers, grandmothers, sisters, wives, granddaughters -- mostly women -- in one of the most vulnerable moments of their life, when a loved one is locked up,\" she said. \"The effects are profound, on their ability to stay in school, to provide food for their children.

Cisneros said he was shocked to learn what happens when friends and family members of those arrested go to a bail bond agent to post bail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There, they pay 10 percent deposit on their bail amount, and that deposit is not deposit, it's a nonrefundable fee that they forever have to pay, even if just a few days later the charges are dropped, even if they meet all their court appearance requirements, even maybe if they are found innocent -- that 10 percent deposit is forever gone,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco, the average bail is set at $50,000, meaning that the 10 percent fee is around $5,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"With a lot of low-income families, $500 can be a lot to come up with -- so $5,000? Particularly $5,000 they are never going to see again, because it's nonrefundable, is a very heavy hit,\" Cisneros said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[bailAmounts]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report suggests a slew of recommendations, some of which are already underway, including investing more money in programs that let people await trial outside jail and creating a regulatory system to better oversee the bail industry. Supervisor Hillary Ronen said she is drafting that legislation now, and today will hold a hearing to examine the report and what San Francisco can do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said the bail system is predicated on a promise to protect public safety -- but it’s not doing that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It just allows people with means to buy their freedom, and poor people to get even deeper into the hole, by having to pay these large nonrefundable fees to the bail industry. And the people who are paying those fees are nine times out of 10 women,\" Ronen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of those women, she said, aren't accused of a crime -- they are trying to help a loved one. And, Ronen says, those women often end up on a payment plan that could last longer than that loved one’s court case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This issue impacts mothers, grandmothers, sisters, wives, granddaughters -- mostly women -- in one of the most vulnerable moments of their life, when a loved one is locked up,\" she said. \"The effects are profound, on their ability to stay in school, to provide food for their children. And, the level of shame they feel ... a common thread from the women telling me their experiences, is the incredible feeling of shame.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11535836\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11535836 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25857_0M6A3530-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25857_0M6A3530-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25857_0M6A3530-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25857_0M6A3530-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25857_0M6A3530-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25857_0M6A3530-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25857_0M6A3530-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25857_0M6A3530-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25857_0M6A3530-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25857_0M6A3530-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">An #EndMoneyBail sign posted on Cheryl Dison's wall. \u003ccite>(Serginho Roosblad/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Ronen said her legislation will create a licensing process for bail agents that operate in San Francisco -- and allow the city to collect more information about the debt collection agreements people sign with bail agents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another idea being explored by city leaders is the creation of a revolving debt fund that would act as a bail bond agent does now -- but give people back the 10 percent fee once their case is adjudicated. The report also recommends lowering the city's bail amounts, something set by the courts. And, it suggests adopting a text message reminder system for court appearances.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cisneros said the bail report is part of a bigger push by his office and others to help low-income people improve their financial situation -- and make sure the city isn't adding to their woes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"All we’re saying is when a fine or fee is warranted, let's make sure we are right-sizing it, let's make sure that it's impacting people equally, depending upon the income they have,\" he said. \"So one of the things the Fines and Fees task force and our project is looking at is maybe introducing some kind of tool that gauges people's ability to pay -- maybe a fine for somebody making $20,000 a year should end up being a different dollar amount than somebody who makes $200,000 a year.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

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.

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>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\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>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\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>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
