x The Affordable Care Act has many provisions that help working families, including coverage protections for people with pre-existing conditions. Marie Newman wants to throw that all away and switch to a government-run plan that would raise taxes on the middle class. pic.twitter.com/rbUjZLODaA — Dan Lipinski (@DanLipinski) March 9, 2020

What is remarkable about this statement by Lipinski is that there was a single Democratic Representative from Illinois that voted against the ACA. Just one person: Rep. Dan Lipinski.

Rep. Lipinski is a special kind of goblin, courting the Republican vote in this Democratic primary by touting his anti-ACA vote and stance, while attacking Marie Newman for wanting to ruin the ACA with a Medicare for All platform. Illinois’ election will be held next week on March 17, 2020.

Many people saw the tweet and were quick to jump on Lipinski’s account to slam him for being so cravenly deceitful.

x You voted against the ACA!! — Tyler Dinucci (@TylerDinucci) March 9, 2020

And here’s an important question for Dan.

x DidnÃ¢ÂÂt you vote against the ACA? Do you stand for anything? — crh (@thehamfist) March 10, 2020

And a reminder of the kind of politician Dan Lipinski is.

x You are the last remaining anti-abortion Dem . You voted to defund health clinics that offer abortion services, and to ban abortions at 20 wk. You opposed the Affordable Care Act and its mandate that employers cover birth control. You attend fundraisers for anti-abortion groups. — Barbara Szram #DemCastIL #DemCast #DemCastUSA (@baszram) March 10, 2020
