Sen. Toomey Would Take Away Health Care From 2.6 Million Pennsylvanians

Dec 03, 2015

Senator Pat Toomey and Senate Republicans are set to repeal Medicaid expansion and defund Planned Parenthood, taking away healthcare coverage from 2.6 million Pennsylvanians and denying women access to important health procedures such as cancer screenings.

Here’s what Pat Toomey wants to take from Pennsylvania families: 

“Pat Toomey’s vote to repeal Medicaid expansion is a vote to end health care for millions of state residents including more than 230,000 children while simultaneously attacking women’s access to quality health care through Planned Parenthood. This another example of Sen. Toomey putting the extreme, partisan agenda of the Koch brothers — who have already spent over $1 million propping him up — ahead of what’s best for working families across Pennsylvania,” said American Bridge 21st Century President Jessica Mackler. “Sen. Toomey’s record speaks for itself. He’s voted at least 15 times to take away quality health insurance from millions of Pennsylvania families and has attacked women’s access to health care through Planned Parenthood.”
