What Congressional Republicans have put forth is a scheme that will mean higher premiums for the middle class, massive cuts to seniors receiving nursing home care through Medicaid and fewer Pennsylvanians covered. This legislation adversely impacts the middle class, seniors and those with disabilities in order to provide another massive tax cut for millionaires and big corporations- it’s wrong and I will work to stop it. At a time when Pennsylvania is dealing with an opioid crisis, this legislation will result in fewer people receiving substance abuse treatment. Instead of full repeal of the Affordable Care Act, Congressional Republicans should work in a bipartisan way to keep what’s working in health care and fix what isn’t.
