Nevada’s Republican Governor Brian Sandoval not only issued a scathing rebuke of the Graham-Cassidy plan to repeal Obamacare, but criticized his state’s Republican Senator, Dean Heller, a co-sponsor of the bill, for deliberately misleading Nevadans about the legislation.

Whereas Sen. Heller touted the “flexibility” of the bill, for reallocating federal dollars from the ACA in the form of block grants to the states, Gov. Sandoval blasted his Republican colleague for what he calls a “false choice.”

“Flexibility with reduced funding is a false choice,” Sandoval said in a statement to The Nevada Independent. “I will not pit seniors, children, families, the mentally ill, the critically ill, hospitals, care providers, or any other Nevadan against each other because of cuts to Nevada’s healthcare delivery system proposed by the Graham-Cassidy amendment.”

Per an analysis of the bill by the state, Nevada would lose between $600 million and $2 billion in federal funding by 2026 should the legislation pass.

“I have said many times before that I will not support legislation that may result in a cost shift to the State or result in Nevadans losing insurance coverage,” Sandoval said. “I cannot in good faith support the Graham-Cassidy amendment.”

As Republicans continue to try to jam their unscored and unvetted bill through Congress with no bipartisan support, they are undoubtedly going to reach the same result as they did the last time they took this back-door approach. And the Republicans who are so blatantly putting party over country will be remembered.
