Republican nominee wants to kick 400,000 Coloradans off health care

By Eric Boehlert - October 12, 2018

Colorado Republican Christine Jensen still thinks attacking health care is a good thing.

Repealing health care access, or providing paid family medical leave — the choices couldn’t be any more clear in the race for the Colorado Senate District 20 this campaign season.

The pivotal contest, which could determine what party controls the Senate next year, features two nominees offering up radically different visions, particularly when it comes to health care.

In the District 20 race, Republican candidate Christine Jensen is still clinging to the idea that Obamacare should be repealed — despite its massive unpopularity.

“Polling shows that health care is a top priority for many Americans, and that Democrats are winning among the segment of the electorate most worried about it,” the Washington Post reported this week. “Republicans have found themselves on the defensive when it comes to an issue they used to champion — eliminating President Obama’s signature domestic achievement.”

Hopefully this will help. This is only one example of how Christine Jensen represents business against the electorate. If Dems take control, they'll revisit a lot of what she and her colleagues have been up to.

You mean that "nicer" vehicle that you can depend to get you to WORK?? If she has her way you'll need an even NICER car to get you to your two jobs to afford health care from the Insurance industrial complex.
