Conway: Trump making decision this week on ObamaCare payments

Kellyanne Conway, an adviser to President Trump, said Sunday he will make a decision this week on ending key payments to insurance companies under ObamaCare.

“He’s going to make that decision this week,” she told “Fox News Sunday.”

The payments are known as cost-sharing reduction payments. Referring to them as “bailouts,” Trump threatened to end the payments on Saturday.

His tweet followed the collapse of the GOP effort to repeal and replace ObamaCare in the Senate this week. Trump is urging Republicans not to give up on the healthcare effort and threatening that if they do not pass a bill, he will end the federal subsidies to insurance companies.
