No public hearings

Why is Mitch McConnell so determined to pass the new Trumpcare bill without public input? There were 44 public hearings during the drafting of the Affordable Care Act. Even the Miami-Dade County Commission conducts public hearings when an ordinance is filed.

Is McConnell is denying the American people a public hearing on his healthcare bill because he thinks we won’t like it?
