Montana Sen. Tester discusses 'disastrous' health care bill at townhall
Sen. Jon Tester took to Facebook on Tuesday to field questions from Montanans about health care proposals a few hours after the Senate delayed a vote on a plan to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act.
He urged people to call their elected representatives and let them know their opposition to proposals that could be detrimental to health care.
The House in May passed the American Health Care Act with the Senate working to pass its own health care bill.
However, Senate GOP leaders on Tuesday delayed a vote until at least next month when they realized they did not have enough GOP votes to move it forward.

Way too much exposure to the voters for our congressman, in any case, and this district isn't just red, it glows red in the night.
Lawrence O'Donnell said if McConnell had been so foolish as to call for the vote (not a chance) a good 39 Republican senators would have voted against. Not because they all opposed it, but because it would have failed anyway and they really, really didn't want to be on record supporting an incredibly unpopular losing bill.
