Schumer: Thousands of Veterans May Lose Benefits

U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer says tens of thousands of veterans stand to lose their healthcare if the latest bill to repeal Obamacare is approved in Congress.  Schumer says the Graham-Cassidy bill would strip veterans of critical benefits.  He claims the bill would cut more than four-trillion-dollars in aid to states over the next two decades including $436 billion in cuts to New York.  Schumer says he is especially concerned about the measure ending Medicaid expansion and says it would waive protections for pre-existing conditions for veterans for such things as PTSD.
