Tennessee Becomes Newest State to Completely Block Obamacare

This morning Governor Haslam of Tennessee stated he would not accept the medicaid expansion. In a 12 minute speech to lawmakers this morning he stated, “I cannot recommend to you that we move forward on this plan.” This comes as a surprise to many who have been mounting the effort to keep the medicaid expansion out of Tennessee. To block the Patient Affordable Care Act on the state level two things had to be done. First, the states had to opt out of the state exchange. Second, states had to block the medicaid expansion. Through grassroots pressure Tennessee residents kept the Governor’s feet to the fire.

Love me some Tennessee. Hope Tenneseeans stem the flood of Islamic immigrants that are trying to build mosques in every nook and cranny of the state. Unlike Howard County Maryland.

Thank you Tennessee for the support of the people that voted to put you in office. Those actions do not happen in Maryland.
