White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany delivers remarks to the 2020 Republican National Convention. Addressing her experience with a BRCAII genetic mutation, McEnany told viewers that "this president stands by Americans with pre-existing conditions." Trump’s policy record on pre-existing conditions, however, tells a different story. He has fought for legislation that would undo the Affordable Care Act and weaken those protections. He’s currently supporting a lawsuit that would wipe out current safeguards for pre-existing conditions, without offering a replacement plan. The president has also used his executive authority to expand the use of short-term health plans, which are less expensive but not required to cover pre-existing medical conditions.
