Now there’s more bad news on the way for Arizona families, many of whom are already facing the possibility of losing their coverage thanks to Kirkpatrick’s proudest vote: the Obama administration just announced that premiums will be skyrocketing next year.
MCCLATCHY: “The Obama administration said Monday premiums for Obamacare will increase by an average of 25 percent next year.”
Kirkpatrick has been an unapologetic Obamacare supporter, recently doubling down on her rhetoric and confirming that her vote for the healthcare overhaul was her proudest vote.
That came after – AFTER – Arizona’s third largest county was facing the possibility of not having a single provider available to those who obtained health insurance through the Obamcare exchange. A last minute change left Pinal County with all of one provider, which is apparently good enough for Ann Kirkpatrick.
If Kirkpatrick’s proudest vote means higher costs and fewer options, Arizona families just can’t afford to send her to the Senate.
