Harris avoids getting too detailed as she battles with Trump

Vice President Harris has avoided getting into the nitty-gritty of detailed policy positions as she seeks to win over centrist voters from former President Trump.

While the vice president has outlined a tax plan and has proposals to lower housing costs and to combat price gouging, she hasn’t gone into detail on plans to fix the immigration system, fight climate change, curb gun violence and expand access to health care.

Harris has said she wants to bring back the bip...

Republicans block Senate Democrats’ IVF bill

Republicans on Tuesday blocked a bill that would have created a right to access in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments and mandated that insurance plans cover the practice, deriding the vote as a political ploy.

Senators voted against advancing the bill, 51-44, marking the second time Democrats have sought to put Republicans on the record on the contentious issue. Sixty votes were needed to open debate on the measure.

Sens. Susan Collins (R-Maine) and Lisa...

Vance revives old GOP fights on ObamaCare insurance coverage

Republican vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) on Sunday floated an idea that would turn back the clock on covering people with preexisting conditions, relitigating a position that was a hallmark of GOP proposals to replace ObamaCare during Donald Trump’s presidency. 

In an interview on NBC's "Meet the Press," Vance said Trump’s health plan would “promote choice” in the health system by separating sicker people into different health insurance coverag...

Vance says ‘of course’ Trump has a plan ‘to fix American health care’

Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), the Republican nominee for vice president, said "of course" former President Trump has a plan to "fix American health care" in a Sunday interview and also outlined several benchmarks of a health care framework.

"He, of course, does have a plan for how to fix American health care, but a lot of it comes down Kristen to deregulating the insurance market so that people can choose a plan that actually makes sense for them," Vance told NBC News's Kristen Welk...

Trump trips on health care over abortion, ObamaCare

Former President Trump stumbled on health care during his debate against Vice President Harris, delivering vague and sometimes conflicting answers on abortion and his plans for the Affordable Care Act (ACA).  

The performance illustrated how the ACA, also known as ObamaCare, in particular has haunted Trump. It also put his shifting stances on abortion — one of the critical issues in the race — under an even hotter spotlight.  

During Tuesday’s debate, Trump was nonco...

Trump on ObamaCare repeal: ‘I have concepts of a plan’

Former President Trump said during Tuesday night’s debate he was interested in trying to repeal ObamaCare again, but indicated he doesn’t have a plan to replace it. 

“We are working on things. We’re going to do it. We’re going to replace it,” Trump said. 

Trump has railed against the health care law since his first presidential campaign, when many Republicans were issuing calls to “repeal and replace” the law. 

Republicans were a sin...
