福克斯新闻 民主党领导人建议川普重新规划医保法案

Plans for a vote on a Republican-drafted health care bill this week in the Senate were scrapped¹, an opportunity Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer says to go back to the drawing board: "We Democrats² are genuinely interested in finding a place where our two parties can come together on health care."

Schumer challenging President Trump³ to invite all 100 Senators for a health care debate. Republican leaders say they have to go it alone, accusing Democrats of an unserious attitude about the Affordable⁴ Care Act.

原定于这周在参议院投票表决的共和党起草的医疗法案表决计划被搁置，民主党党魁查克·舒默则认为这恰好是重新规划医疗法案的契机：“我们民主党诚挚地盼望我们两党能够就医疗法案达成共识。”

舒默向要求特朗普总统邀请所有100位参议员参加一场医疗法案的辩论。民主党领袖们表示他们要自己解决这一问题，指责民主党对平价医疗法案的态度不够严肃。
