This is the pure evil we’re dealing with in the Republican Party. Never forget it.
Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin has issued an executive order that could strip health care from 500,000 Kentuckians, if anyone dare to legally challenge and successfully have overturned his new and cruel Medicaid rules that the Trump administration approved.
Gov. Matt Bevin has issued an executive order that would strip Medicaid coverage from nearly half a million Kentuckians should his proposed overhaul of the federal-state health plan be struck down in court.
But several advocacy groups have said some of the changes — such as requiring some "able-bodied" adults to work or volunteer at least 20 hours a week — likely will be challenged in court because they violate federal law that establishes Medicaid purely as a health program and does not authorize work requirements.
"Is the Governor of Kentucky saying that if he is caught doing something illegal, he will take health care away from hundreds of thousands of Kentuckians who have done nothing wrong?" asked Leonardo Cuello, director of health policy for the National Health Law Program.
Cuello's Washington-based health advocacy group is considering a legal challenge to Bevin's plan.
