I'm not even going to begin to pretend to understand the law fully until I edumacate myself. Join me in my journey.

Copied and pasted from How the GOP health care plan differs from Obamacare - ABC News

In brief: What the AHCA does:
Ends individual mandate, imposes surcharge for coverage lapse
Ends Obamacare premium subsidies, offers tax credits instead
Rolls back Medicaid expansion across 30 states
Allows states to impose Medicaid work requirement
Expands health savings accounts
Allows states to waive federal "essential health benefits" requirement and set own standard
Allows insurers to charge older people up to 5 times as much as younger
Repeals consumer taxes
Imposes abortion restriction on tax credits
Imposes Planned Parenthood restriction for Medicaid
Requires insurers to allow young adults to stay on parents' plans until 26
Allows states to permit insurers to charge more for pre-existing conditions
Allocates $8 billion to help subsidize people with pre-existing conditions in state high-risk pools
Prohibits insurers from imposing lifetime or annual limits on coverage
Establishes "patient and state stability fund" to help states service low-income Americans"

At this point in time, I think the Medicaid reduction will affect the most people.
