Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsCan anyone point me to the list of states that would be most harmed under the Cassidy/Graham bill?
We should be working especially hard to contact legislators in the red states and swing states in the group -- like West Virginia and Ohio.
(These are the states that got the Medicaid expansion, the funds for which will instead be distributed to non-expansion states.)

Hope this helps.

(694 posts)I wish I could find the article. It was filled with a lot of valuable information including a comparison chart between this Republican POS and the last Republican POS.
The states "most harmed" according to the article were blue states.

The states that actually expanded Medicaid lose the most. Kentucky , for example, loses over 3000 per capita.
