Passed by a democratic house, democratic senate, signed into law by a democrat president... blame the other party for it being a turd in a punch bowl. Yes it's great preexisting conditions are covered. Too bad so many people can't afford that benefit.you know that got murdered by a republican congress.... you have to. Its a shadow of what it should have been, but some good still came out of it. The biggest good being the pre-existing conditions clause. The healthcare marketplaces are the poorest implemented aspect of it
