Republicans must be too busy trying to distract us with other things to try and cancel Obamacare lately. Or maybe they’ve finally realized most people like it.

At any rate, this is another great idea from Governor Gretchen Whitmer. All states should do it. Probably only the Democratic-run ones will. #VoteBlue

@TonyStark obamacare is so terrible i'm surprised they don't try to take credit for it
yes i support obama, yes it's ... slightly better than nothing... but trust me, from experience, the marketplace insurance plans are awful places that will just refuse all your claims unless you fight them.

@hapbt @TonyStark first, it got stripped down from the original plan. Secondly it varies widely from state to state. They shouldn’t have let the states have input.

@CatDragon @TonyStark i agree with all that, a better idea would be for republicans to identify what they actually don't like about it, and work towards fixing it but, no, it has to be torn down so they can replace it with something worse

@hapbt @TonyStark they have no intention of replacing it. Getting rid of it all together is the goal.
