Quotes that support the claim

Let’s strengthen the Affordable Care Act instead of getting rid of it. Let’s work together to bring down Americans’ health care and prescription drug costs, and expand Medicaid in the 10 remaining states. And to those who want to repeal this lifesaving law let me be clear: I won’t let it happen on my watch.

The President-elect has supported the Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and has proposed broader coverage expansions using a federal public option to cover more low-income Americans, including those in states that have not expanded.
