Call Jerry Moran
They’re trying to revive the Obamacare repeal in the Senate again, this time with a bill known as Graham-Cassidy. All Republicans need is one more vote to get it passed. The bill is a disaster, and here is a good explanation why. No more Medicaid expansion, no more preexisting coverage, lifetime caps, and they’re trying to ram it through without so much as an analysis by the Congressional Budget Office.
If you live in Missouri, your two senators are Claire McCaskill and Roy Blunt.
McCaskill, the only Democrat, will oppose the bill. The other three are Republicans.
Blunt has repeatedly misled the public about Obamacare. He is also a partisan hack. He will support the bill.
Pat Roberts is a nasty old grandpa who thinks this whole healthcare fight is somehow beneath him. He will support the bill. Fuck Pat Roberts. Here’s his phone number: 202-224-4774
.
Jerry Moran is a little different. The last time we all had to beg our representatives not to take health care away from us, Moran attended some town halls and came away “concerned the bill wouldn’t lower overall consumer costs and wouldn’t provide adequate protection for those with pre-existing conditions,” according to NPR. “He also expressed concerns that deep cuts in Medicaid over the next decade could threaten the survival of already struggling rural hospitals and nursing homes.”
Those things are true! As a result, Moran helped kill that bill. This bill is no better, and Moran should again oppose it. He should hear from his constituents in Kansas.
