CBO Says GOP Health Bill Boosts Uninsured by 22 Million

The video discusses the potential impact of 22 million more uninsured individuals and a $420 billion deficit reduction over the next decade. It explores the Cruz amendment, which allows for cheaper, bare-bones insurance plans, and the consumer freedom option. Critics argue these plans are insufficient, with lower premiums but higher deductibles, potentially increasing costs for patients. The video also examines the political implications in the Senate and differing views among economists regarding the amendment's effectiveness in reducing premiums and increasing coverage.
