STATEMENT: NH GOP Senate Candidates Would Be Yes Votes to Repeal the Affordable Care Act

Senate Republicans just announced that in addition to prioritizing raising taxes on Granite Staters if they re-take the Senate majority, they will also once again try to overturn the Affordable Care Act — raising health care costs and threatening coverage for Granite Staters with pre-existing conditions. In response, NHDP spokesperson Gates MacPherson released the following statement: “If Chuck Morse, Kevin Smith, or Don Bolduc were in the Senate with Mitch McConnell, there’s no doubt they would eagerly help Senate Republicans raise taxes on seniors, end Medicare and Social Security, and now, try to increase the cost of health care while ripping away coverage protections from Granite Staters with pre-existing conditions. That’s the Republican agenda, and it would cost the people of New Hampshire dearly. While Senator Hassan is working to lower costs and ensure New Hampshire families have access to affordable health care, Chuck Morse, Kevin Smith, and Don Bolduc are running to be rubber stamps for Republicans’ unpopular agenda that comes at Granite Staters’ expense.”
