If you thought being in an employer plan would protect you from the evils of Trumpcare, you are sadly mistaken. Trumpcare V2.1 will impose annual limits on as many as 27 million Americans and lifetime limits on as many as 20 million. And it’s not just in states with waivers, which is to say your Democratic governor can’t protect you.
