BREAKING: “GOP Weighs Health Care Cuts to Pay for Iran War” [Axios]

Last year, Wagner voted for the largest cut to Medicaid and food assistance in American history to fund massive tax breaks for billionaires. Hospitals, nursing homes and community-based health clinics across the country are closing because of this law. At the same time, Wagner and Republicans refused to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits, forcing millions of hardworking Americans to choose between higher premium costs or losing insurance altogether.

DCCC Spokesperson Lindsay Reilly:
“Ann Wagner learned nothing after decimating America’s health care system to deliver massive tax breaks for GOP billionaires. Now, she is choosing to further cut affordable care to pay for a foreign war. Missourians will vote her out of office for her callousness.” 

REMINDER: All cycle, the DCCC has been making sure voters know who is responsible for the health care crisis working families face today through a series of digital ads and billboards across the House battlefield. It’s clear that the unprecedented attack by House Republicans on health care will cost them the majority, and the DCCC will highlight their cruel, harmful agenda every day from now until election day.
