GOP governor: Trump halting ObamaCare payments is devastating

Last edited Sun Oct 15, 2017, 09:58 AM - Edit history (1)

Nevada's Republican Gov. Brian Sandoval ripped President Trump's decision to end key payments to insurers selling ObamaCare plans on Friday, calling the move "devastating."

The payments help low-income people afford co-pays, deductibles and other out-of-pocket costs associated with health insurance policies.

“It’s going to hurt people. It’s going to hurt kids. It’s going to hurt families. It’s going to hurt individuals. It’s going to hurt people with mental health issues. It’s going to hurt veterans. It’s going to hurt everybody,” Sandoval, who has been critical of Trump's attempts to repeal and replace ObamaCare, told The Nevada Independent.

Persons here in Nevada,that with the Subsidy,they can afford Insurance. Our average family unit Income ranks near the bottom in the Nation.

Trump's close personal friends Adelsen and Wynn are lovin this deal. Looks like these two have cut Sandoval loose in favor of Laxaht.

Obama care is the law of the land. This is an impeachable act: let's see who the governors really work for.

out of office? If they think doing nothing will make them unpopular, wait until they see what letting him continue on his rampage does to their future career possibilities.
