The Republican's Obamacare replacement bill, explained

Republicans announced a plan to replace Obamacare this week. It gets rid of the individual mandate and restricts the amount of people who can be covered by Medicaid. It also says Medicaid cannot be used at Planned Parenthood for such things as contraception and mammograms. What will the plan mean for Planned Parenthood? And for the millions of Californians covered under the ACA?
