Community Calls on Tenney, Katko, and Stefanik to Reject Health Care Repeal
Utica, NY – The Graham-Cassidy Bill, the latest incarnation of TrumpCare, is rapidly gaining momentum in the U.S. House and Senate. If passed, the bill would strip health care coverage from 32 million people, gut protections for pre-existing conditions, limit access to women’s health, and make deep cuts to Medicaid funding.
Community members are calling on Rep. Claudia Tenney, Rep. John Katko, and Rep. Elise Stefanik to oppose this disastrous bill. Simultaneous events in opposition to the health care bill will be taking place in Albany, Kingston, Glens Falls, and Binghamton.
