After Democrats captured the House and Senate in Tuesday’s elections, they are preparing to pursue health-care legislation and oversight, including efforts to undo recent cuts to the Affordable Care Act and Medicaid and to address insurance and prescription costs. With at least 237 House seats and 54 Senate seats projected by The Associated Press as of Wednesday afternoon, Democratic leaders still need President Donald Trump’s support because he can reject bills. In a telephone interview with Politico, Trump said he had spoken with Democratic leaders and described a desire to find common ground rather than remain solely in opposition during the next two years. Whether that approach will lead him to accept changes to Republican health policies, such as Medicaid work requirements, is not yet clear.
