Mike Lawler Votes For Cost-Spiking GOP Health Care ‘Plan’ That Hurts Working New Yorkers

Lawler’s ‘plan’ would RAISE health care costs by letting critical ACA tax credits expire

After creating a health care crisis leaving New Yorkers at risk of losing access to lifesaving care, Mike Lawler voted to pass a disastrous health care ‘plan’ that even his Republican colleague called “milquetoast garbage.

REMINDER: Lawler’s 11th hour health care scheme will push junk insurance plans, undermine protections for people with preexisting conditions, make health care more expensive, and leave millions of Americans without health insurance because they are letting critical ACA tax credits expire – causing premiums to skyrocket.

Because of Lawler, hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers already saw their health care costs skyrocket during open enrollment, forcing some to make impossible choices between necessities or even forgo health insurance altogether.

DCCC Spokesperson Riya Vashi:
“Mike Lawler can’t seem to stop voting to raise costs on New Yorkers. His latest ‘plan’ is nothing more than a smokescreen for his long record of gutting health care and making life more expensive for the people of NY-17. Lawler’s record of destroying health care will be a defining issue of his race, and New York voters will hold him accountable for his toxic agenda of slashing health care.”
