House Democrats in power for the first time in nearly a decade are opening a sustained campaign to hammer Republicans on Obamacare, seeking to force the GOP’s hand on popular policies like protecting patients with preexisting conditions. The rising public support for Obamacare was a winner for Democrats in 2018, and they want to capitalize on that going into 2020, rolling out their own bills to preserve and expand coverage under the Affordable Care Act while plotting a potentially tendentious path toward eventual universal coverage or "Medicare for All."
