Here's a list of every vulnerable House Republican who voted to gut pre-existing conditions coverage
Ahead of the midterm elections, Republicans are positioning themselves as members of the party that will protect people with pre-existing conditions. But this campaign strategy simply doesnt match up with their voting record on health care.
Republicans only will always protect patients with pre-existing conditions, said President Donald Trump during a campaign rally for Rep. Andy Barr (R-KY) over the weekend.
Meanwhile, the truth is Barr voted to weaken protections for people with pre-existing conditions five different times since he started representing Kentuckys 6th Congressional District in 2013. And hes hardly alone in voting that way.
Of the 73 Republicans in House races deemed competitive by the Cook Political Report, 67 voted at least once to eliminate Affordable Care Act (ACA) protections for people with pre-existing conditions, according to an analysis from the Center for American Progress Action Fund. Fifty-seven Republicans voted more than once to overturn these protections; 31 voted more than six times to overturn these protections; and 24 voted all nine opportunities they had to overturn these protections without replacing them with something comparable.
