19 April 2019 - More than 1 million Americans have lost health insurance coverage since 2016, according to a new report from the Congressional Budget Office.
The analysis, which was released Thursday, estimated that the number of Americans without insurance has risen from 27.5 million in 2016 to 28.9 million in 2018.
The report, which was released Thursday, follows other surveys and studies that have also found the number of uninsured people has been rising since President Trump took office, including a Gallup poll from January, which found the percentage of Americans without health insurance reached its highest point since 2014.
