Bevin Under Pressure on ObamaCare

(Before It's News)

Kentucky can get rid of ObamaCare expansion in 2016, but it’s critical you take action now. ObamaCare lackeys are turning up the heat on Governor-elect Matt Bevin in an attempt to continue the budget-busting program, and I’m alarmed to tell you he appears to be wavering. According to media sources, he’s now saying he will “apply for a federal waiver” to let the state design their own plan.

We’ve seen this before in other states. A “federal waiver” is just ObamaCare expansion under a different name.
I need your help to remind Governor-elect Bevin that Kentucky citizens elected him to get rid of ObamaCare expansion not to tinker with it. It’s absolutely critical you send him the message to stand strong on his campaign promise to END ObamaCare expansion.

 

Did you know you are paying the health insurance bills for 97% Obama’s “newly insured”? Despite that, ObamaCare lackeys are pressuring Governor-elect Matt Bevin to continue ObamaCare expansion in Kentucky. ObamaCare stooges swore their scheme would bring prices down, since “everyone would have to pay something in.” But only 3% of the “newly insured” are actually paying into this boondoggle. According to Heritage Foundation, 97% of last year’s “newly insured” citizens are on ObamaCare’s expanded Medicaid scheme. As is usually the case, bureaucrats grossly underestimated the number of people that would apply for Medicaid in states that expanded their programs under ObamaCare. In fact, in some states, the number of enrollees was almost three times what was expected. Click here to sign your “End It – Don’t Mend It!” petition right away. ObamaCare lured Kentucky into expanding Medicaid by promising to pay certain associated costs for a couple of years. But in 2017, the federal government will reduce the reimbursement rate significantly, leaving Kentucky taxpayers with the obligation to dole out a significant portion of the tab. ObamaCare expansion supporters keep trying to sell you a false bill of goods. They claim NOT participating in the optional program would “leave Kentucky money” on the table. They say Kentucky Medicaid dollars would be spent in other states. But according to the Congressional Research Service, that’s a lie. They found: “If a state doesn’t implement the ACA Medicaid expansion, the federal funds that would have been used for that state’s expansion are not being sent to another state.” Continuing the failed ObamaCare expansion program under ANY name is just plain wrong for Kentucky. Many states that opted to expand their Medicaid programs under ObamaCare went millions of dollars – and in some cases billions of dollars – over budget last year. In Ohio, the Kasich Administration had to take funds from their pre-expansion program that covers the truly needy – such as elderly and disabled people – and used those funds for the optional expansion that covers ABLE-BODIED individuals!

The truth is, if Kentucky continues Medicaid expansion under any name, higher taxes and out-of-control spending could be the least of your worries. This scheme could lead to the death of private health care in America. ObamaCare is designed to completely destroy private sector competition and force all Americans onto a government-run system. It’s critical you click here to sign your “End It – Don’t Mend It!” petition RIGHT AWAY. This destructive scheme is causing grievous harm to Kentucky health care and taxpayers like you and me. But if you take action, we just may be able to end this destructive scheme this year. Please sign your petition right away and ask your friends and family to do the same.
