her numbers. Josh H. is being targeted by ads that he followed other republican attorney generals to invalidate the ACA. The Missouri ads are featuring those who would be harmed w/ the repeal of this law (ACA), those already sick and have pre-existing conditions.

I guess he feels like bankruptcy and death is the better choice than having no ACA.

Nail it to him, he deserves it, since he's solely doing this for political reasons and not truly a valid reason (e.g., if the ACA was truly defective, then ok, repeal it or fix it).

Since this Josh H. is advocating for the repeal of the ACA, I wonder how many people have been saved by the ACA, either from serious injury caused by sickness or death for other reasons, by just having insurance via the ACA?

I'd love to hear these numbers, for I'm sure that all of us wish a healthy and productive life...if you don't have insurance, or substandard insurance, you're running major risk, for you and your families/loved ones.

I'm going to make sure that people know this fact about Josh H. (and better yet, McCaskill does care about us, and is a positive voice for all Missourians.)
