He has been willing to accept improvements to the bill. Weve gone out of our way, and the president has said this, to say that anything that makes the bill better for Americans, we are willing to accept. <\/p>\n
Some demands include an end the expansion of Medicaid by 2018 instead of 2020, and the removal of insurance mandates that provide certain benefits such as maternity care. <\/p>\n
Cohn on Sunday also defended the bill, saying it provides Americans with health insurance coverage. <\/p>\n
