The grassroots organization Americans for Prosperity is targeting Republican members of the Florida Senate for their support of expanding Medicaid under the highly unpopular Obamacare law.
The group’s Florida chapter is sending out thousands of mailers to Florida voters urging them to contact GOP Senators Anitere Flores, Rene Garcia, Senate President Andy Gardiner, asking them to “vote no” on expanding “Obama’s Medicaid expansion.”Here is the press release AFP-Florida sent out about their efforts to keep the Senate from expanding Medicaid.
“A number of senators have indicated in previous votes that they are unwilling to stand for Florida families and the most needy of our state,” said state director, Chris Hudson, “but there is still time to change course. We are reaching out to Floridians in every district of every member of the Senate that has taken a vote in favor of expanding the broken and bloated Medicaid system under Obamacare.”

The mail piece will also reach Floridians in Senate President Andy Gardiner’s district.
In a recent message to the Florida Senate, President Gardiner stated he wants to pass a “pro-active, market-based, Florida-driven solution for the enormous health care challenges facing our state”.
“If President Gardiner wants real market-based solutions, he should be looking to solve the real problems here – the overall cost of health care,” continued Hudson. “We have been advocating for expanding telemedicine, reforming certificate of need, and expanding scope of practice as some of the possible ways the Senate can take bold steps to making health care more affordable and available to all Floridians.”
The mailers calling out these selected members of the Florida Senate states that,”The Florida Senate continues to move forward on a plan to give good people bad coverage,” adding that it was about time that the Senate followed the lead of the Florida House, and “stop investing in a bad system (healthcare).”
Meanwhile, tens of thousands of Americans have seen their health insurance premiums and yearly deductibles skyrocket under Obamacare.
Again, Obamacare is a really bad law.
