"SNIP..............
Three Republican governors John Kasich of Ohio, Brian Sandoval of Nevada, and Charlie Baker of Massachusetts signed onto a letter sent to congressional leaders Friday rejecting the current iteration of the GOP healthcare bill.
In the letter to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, three Republican governors and four Democratic governors called for bipartisan efforts to reform the healthcare system.
"While we certainly agree that reforms need to be made to our nations health care system, as Governors from both sides of the political aisle, we feel that true and lasting reforms are best approached by finding common ground in a bipartisan fashion," the letter said.
The governors also admonished the House GOP version of the American Health Care Act for creating more problems in the healthcare system than it solves.
