How do you feel about these attacks on health care? Take our survey >>

John,

While Andy is fighting in court to preserve Kentuckians’ access to affordable care, Matt Bevin is trying to let health insurance companies get away with selling cut-rate plans that don’t even cover preexisting conditions, prescription drugs, or mental health care. That’s on top of Bevin’s efforts to gut Kentucky’s Medicaid program and throw thousands of families off their insurance.

Bevin’s callous actions threaten to reverse the significant progress we’ve made in Kentucky since the Affordable Care Act passed. We have reduced our uninsured rate from 20 percent in 2010 to just 7.5 percent today -- the largest reduction in the country!

But if Bevin gets his way, 379,000 people could lose their coverage. And even Kentuckians who have insurance could be denied coverage for services deemed "nonessential."

As governor, Andy will put a stop to the nonsense. He’ll halt Bevin’s effort to throw Kentuckians off the Medicaid program on day one, and he’ll work to get protections for essential health benefits passed into state law.

But Andy wants to hear from you too. What do you think about Matt Bevin’s plan to kick families off their health insurance? Will you take Andy’s survey and let him know?

Thanks,
