Four GOP Senators try to hide their votes to kill health care coverage for 'pre-existing conditions'

Four embattled Republican senators—Colorado’s Cory Gardner, Georgia’s David Perdue, Arizona’s Martha McSally, and Montana’s Steve Daines—appear to have come to the belated conclusion that voting to kill health care coverage for millions of Americans may turn out to be a political liability in November.

As reported by Sahil Kapur, writing for NBC News:

WASHINGTON —Republican senators facing tough re-election fights this fall are expressing support for insurance protections for people with pre-existing medical conditions, running ads at odds with their own recent votes and policy positions.


All four are on record as voting to repeal the Affordable Care Act, which prohibits insurance companies from denying coverage to Americans on the basis of what those companies euphemistically refer to as “pre-existing conditions.” And now all four are desperately backtracking on those votes, blatantly lying directly to their constituents in a series of ads that suggest they did the exact opposite, and that they somehow now “support” such coverage.
