Well, I have news; 750,000 people across this country got care. I also have news that more than 80% of providers have signed up. We are getting it done.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8559356\" data-originallang=\"en\">He can fearmonger and he can scare people, but we are going to get it done on pharma as well. We are going to make sure that diabetes patients get their medication. We are going to make sure that women get their contraceptives, because that is what freedom looks like: a woman who has choice over her own body.</p>",

Cet homme a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 que les fournisseurs n'y adh\u00e9reraient pas. J'ai une petite nouvelle pour lui: \u00e0 ce jour, 750 000 personnes au pays se sont pr\u00e9values du r\u00e9gime, et plus de 80 % des fournisseurs y ont adh\u00e9r\u00e9. Voil\u00e0 ce que j'appelle des r\u00e9sultats.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8559356\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a beau semer la peur et tenir des propos alarmistes, nous, nous allons \u00e9galement obtenir des r\u00e9sultats \u00e0 l'\u00e9gard du r\u00e9gime d'assurance-m\u00e9dicaments. Nous allons faire ce qu'il faut pour que les diab\u00e9tiques obtiennent leurs m\u00e9dicaments. Nous allons faire ce qu'il faut pour que les femmes obtiennent leurs contraceptifs. Apr\u00e8s tout, c'est \u00e0 cela que ressemble la libert\u00e9: une femme qui est libre de faire ses propres choix en ce qui concerne son propre corps.</p>"
