Yarmuth, Neal Request OMB Analysis of Senate GOP Budget Resolution

The following press release was published by the U.S. Congress Committee on Ways and Means on Jan. 9, 2017. It is reproduced in full below.

WASHINGTON, DC - Budget Committee Ranking Member John Yarmuth (D-KY) and Ways and Means Committee Ranking Member Richard Neal (D-MA) today sent a letter to White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Director Shaun Donovan, requesting an analysis of how Senate Republicans’ Fiscal Year 2017 budget resolution - which would partially repeal the Affordable Care Act and cause nearly 30 million Americans to lose their health insurance - would impact our nation’s budget.

“Given the importance of the budget resolution and our expected compressed schedule, we would appreciate the Office of Management and Budget's views on the Senate-introduced resolution," wrote the Ranking Members. “Specifically, we are interested in your office's assessment of the resolution's impact on our long term budget outlook."
