When Will the Lies End? Young Kim Votes to Rob Over 26,000 Constituents of their Health Care

In delivering the deciding vote on House Republicans’ Tax Scam, Young Kim proved she is nothing but a liar – full stop.

LIE #1: Kim said “a budget resolution that does not protect vital Medicaid services for the most vulnerable citizens in my community will not receive my vote.”

LIE #2: Scrambling to justify said vote, Kim claimed that she “stood up to House leadership,” by voting for a bill that “strengthens Medicaid services for our most vulnerable citizens.”

REALITY: As a direct result of this bill, more than 26,000 people in California’s 40th Congressional District will be kicked off their health insurance.

DCCC Spokesperson Anna Elsasser:
“Young Kim’s deciding vote to strip health care from vulnerable families, children, and seniors shows exactly where her priorities lie – and it’s not with the people of California’s 40th. Californians deserve better than someone who will roll over to party leadership at their expense.”
