Texas House Republicans Meet TODAY to Plot Cave on Obamacare
Red State ^ | 3/4/2013 | Erick Erickson

Empower Texans brings rather troubling news that today Texas State House of Representatives Republicans will meet at 1p.m. CT to begin “discussing” caving on Obamacare and expanding Medicaid.

Governor Rick Perry is solid on the issue, but if enough members of the Texas legislature disagree with him, they could override him.

The ring leader is apparently State Rep. Lois Kolkhorst, along with Representative John Zerwas.

If you live in Texas, go to the RedState Action Center RIGHT NOW and email members of the Texas State House of Representatives. Tell them to oppose the Medicaid expansion.


TOPICS: Business/Economy; Constitution/Conservatism; Crime/Corruption; US: Texas
KEYWORDS: johnzerwas; loiskolkhorst; texashouse
The eyes of Texas, and the nation, are upon you miserable RinoS. Your names will go down in infamy.

If this is the deal where Washington pays for the first three years of the Medicaid expansion, then the state picks it up after that, taxpayers need to FULLY understand the tab they’re going to be picking up in three years.

In three years the coverage is dropped if the feds don’t pony up the extra 10%

Does look like a nifty loophole to break the nobamacare bank.

Still, if somehow the dems take back the House in 2014, they will make sure all these previously unknown “burdens” are taken care of.
