WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF), the US’ largest AIDS organization as well as the operator of California’s largest alternative HIV testing program, is criticizing Speaker Nancy Pelosi (San Francisco, California – 8th District) today for her silence as Governor Schwarzenegger cuts more than $243 million from Health and Human Services—including $80 million from child welfare, $61 million from California’s Medicaid program, $50 million from the state’s insurance program for poor children and $52 million in AIDS prevention and treatment. AHF is calling for immediate federal assistance to stop the shredding of California’s health care safety net.

“Where is Speaker Pelosi, now that the children, the poor, the elderly and the ill of her state are faced with losing their health care safety net?” said Michael Weinstein, President of AIDS Healthcare Foundation. “Despite Speaker Pelosi’s leading role in national health care reform, neither she nor other members of California’s congressional delegation—the largest delegation in Congress—have spoken a word while their own state’s health care infrastructure is being torn apart. As a representative of California, Speaker Pelosi has a responsibility to ensure the welfare of her constituents on the most basic terms. As a powerful voice for national health care reform, she has a responsibility to ensure that the health care safety net for the country’s largest state doesn’t crumble to the ground.”

No, not really.

And California is the 3rd largest state. Facts don't matter to liberals any way.

“Healthcare crumbles”

Don’t believe it for a minute. It’s the media’s way of trying to dispel anxiety as the socialist party of democrats get it through the back door.(No pun intended)

“Where is Speaker Pelosi, now that the children, the poor, the elderly and the ill of her state are faced with losing their health care safety net?” She is making a larger net with larger holes.

[ThreePuttinDude]

Wouldn't it be an emotionally uplifting event if the insurers

I’m a native Californian who no longer lives there, but I’m old enough to remember when it was truly the Golden State. Now it is in the hands of a wrecking crew.
