Clinton’s comments came after the House successfully passed GOP healthcare legislation aimed at repealing and replacing ObamaCare.
The Republican-controlled chamber passed the legislation on Thursday in a narrow 217-213 vote.
The bill, known as the American Health Care Act, was a major victory for the House Republican leadership and President Trump, Clinton’s former opponent.
