The group &mdash; which already counts more than 100 health care provider, consumer, advocacy and business groups among its members &mdash; gives voice to many in Colorado in the federal policy conversation around unwinding the Affordable Care Act.<\/p>\n<p>Its goal, according to Chamber President Kelly Brough&rsquo;s letter, is to urge our representatives in Congress and the new presidential administration &ldquo;to develop a comprehensive and thoughtful health care framework before taking action to repeal the nation&rsquo;s current health care policy.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The coalition spelled out its position in a <a href=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/753ad51239e8f09337f70e53b\/files\/Health_Principles_Ltr_1.4.17.pdf?utm_source=Denver+Metro+Chamber+of+Commerce&amp;utm_campaign=9fc2c23aae-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2017_01_09&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_term=0_6a7a81ce1f-9fc2c23aae-262153305\">letter<\/a> to the governor, Colorado&rsquo;s congressional delegation and the state legislature.
