In this May 26, 2017 photo, Lisa Dammert is poses with her husband, Patrick, and son, Bobby, at their home in Franklin, Tenn. As a thyroid cancer survivor battling nerve damage and other complications, Lisa was in such dire financial straits in 2014 that she and her husband let their health insurance lapse, putting them in a category with some 6 million Americans who have gone without coverage at times despite serious health problems.

FILE - In this May 4, 2017, file photo, President Donald Trump claps as he arrives in the Rose Garden of the White House, Thursday, May 4, 2017, in Washington, followed by Vice President Mike Pence after the House pushed through a health care bill. Trump has called the House-passed health care bill a “great plan,” but a new poll finds that three out of four Americans do not believe it fulfills most of his promises. The poll out May 31, 2017, from the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation also found a growing share of the public concerned that the GOP’s American Health Care Act will have negative consequences for them personally by increasing their costs, making it harder to get and keep health insurance, or reducing quality.
