Senator Hassan: “It Is Time for Republicans and Democrats to Come Together and Get to Work”

WASHINGTON – Senator Maggie Hassan released the following statement on tonight’s vote to defeat Senate Republican leadership’s “skinny repeal” legislation:

“I thank Senators Lisa Murkowski, John McCain, and Susan Collins for putting the health and well-being of the American people before partisan politics. I am also incredibly grateful for the brave Granite Staters and Americans who have laid themselves bare and shared their stories over the past months. Without you, this outcome would not have been possible. Now, it is time for Republicans and Democrats to come together and get to work on improving and building upon the Affordable Care Act in order to bring down health care costs for hard-working people.”
