RALEIGH Sep 19, 2017 RALEIGH: Governor Roy Cooper released the following statement in response to the health care legislation introduced by Senators Bill Cassidy and Lindsey Graham: “The latest proposal to repeal the Affordable Care Act may be even worse than previous proposals: raising premiums, weakening protections for people with pre-existing conditions, and slashing over $1 billion from North Carolina’s Medicaid program. North Carolina’s middle-class families will be worse off if this passes. “Senate Republicans in Washington must work with Democrats to reach a bipartisan solution that expands health care coverage and makes it better.”
