Pennsylvania senator Pat Toomey has spent the past week defending the bill he co-wrote. And while the senator who led the cuts to Medicaid told Pennsylvanians that “no one would lose coverage” under his health care plan…
Toomey on WFMZ: “Nobody who qualifies is ever going to be kicked off.”
Toomey on CBS: “No one will lose coverage.”
… the CBO just said otherwise.
“Rather than working to expand access to affordable, quality health care for the people of Pennsylvania, Pat Toomey crafted a bill that will strip 22 million people of their health care and lied to his constituents so he could give tax breaks to millionaires and billionaires,” said Brandon Cwalina, spokesperson for the Pennsylvania Democratic Party.
