Senator Dean Heller is lying to Nevada.
I broke down Senator Hellers statements and tell you how he is lying.
Heller: Obamacare clearly isnt the answer but doing nothing isnt the answer either.
Truth: Obamacare was the answer for tens of millions of Americans who needed protections in the way of preventing insurance companies from discriminating against pre-existing conditions, being a woman and expensive treatment. Senator Heller voted on a motion to proceed on a bill that he has not yet seen and the ones he has seen provide no positive answers for anyone in America. By voting for the motion to proceed, Heller is allowing a bill to repeal Obamacare without a replacement, literally not doing anything for Americans needing healthcare, i.e., all of us.
Heller: Families have expressed unbearable struggles with the massive increases in premiums and a total loss of options for healthcare under Obamacare. Next year, Nevadans living in 14 of our 17 counties will have no insurer at all to choose from purchasing insurance on the individual market will face an average premium increase of 38 percent.
Truth: Premiums have grown at a smaller rate in Nevada under Obamacare than they did before Obamacare. While counties in Nevada have in fact lost their only insurer on the individual market, it is due to the Trump administration creating uncertainty by threatening Obamacare stability and threatening to withhold CSRs (Cost Sharing Reductions offered to insurers who offer plans to low income individuals). The 38% increase in premiums is also directly due to the Trump administrations threats to destabilize the markets if Congress doesnt repeal Obamacare.

(34,661 posts)exception of a hand out rag or two. Review-Journal is the largest Newspaper of circulation in Nevada. Las Vegas Sun owned by the Greenspun Family piggy backs with the RJ as a insert. The Sun is liberal and will most likely carry this story. You most likely will not see it in RJ Print.
Adelson and Steve Wynn own Hellers sorry ass lock stock and Barrel.
Noticed the RJ posted a story the other day saying,Heller had some 3.5 million campaign war chest. Funny thing,two months ago he had 750k,been saying Heller would be bought.

(34,661 posts)Mega Conservative Radio and TV here in Nevada. This Health Care Repeal thing will cause enough strife in it's self.
Noticed Heller's Media Supporters are playing the pity card already. The paid poster's are in working it big time.
