Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., are calling for rallies nationwide in late February to push against Republican efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act.

In a letter to their colleagues in the Senate, the pair call for their fellow Senate Democrats to lead and participate in rallies on Feb. 25. They also argued that the Republican plan to repeal Obamacare is mired in "chaos" and that the majority of Americans do not want the healthcare law repealed.

"The Republican Party's plan to repeal the Affordable Care Act is in chaos," Schumer and Sanders said in the letter. "The American people increasingly understand that throwing 20 million people off health insurance, privatizing Medicare, raising prescription drug costs for seniors and doing away with life-and-death patient protection provisions is not acceptable. The overwhelming majority of Americans want to improve the ACA, not destroy it,"

"We are encouraging Democratic senators to lead rallies in their states. This is not a Democratic issue, a Republican issue or an Independent issue. The overwhelming majority of Americans, regardless of political persuasion, understand that we have to go forward on health care, not backwards," the letter said.

The rallies would piggyback off similar rallies held by Democratic senators on the issue on Jan. 15.

Throughout the first three weeks of President Trump's tenure in the White House, Democrats have been outspoken about their support for the ACA and critical of Republicans for not being ready with a plan to replace the law upon its possible repeal.
