    The GOP health plan is really a rollback of Medicaid. http://ow.ly/sEgj30cNgoJ pic.twitter.com/MIXhWwkT9o

        Uncle @SenateMajLdr and @GOP are willing to subject the weakest among us to short, brutal lives for a tax cut for the rich. #MitchKills

        Close. The GOP so-called health plan is a tax cut for the very wealthy financed by a rollback of Medicaid.

        Yup. Until they or their loved ones join one of those demographics. Then it's different because it's about THEM. Selfish and shortsighted.

        My takeaway is "family values" #GOP does not value poor children or poor elders. It's a big F-U to the most vulnerable among us, very Jesus.

        If the GOP designed it, the GOP should have to use it.

        What's the GOP endgame? They know the draft will be pilloried, have a plan for certain concessions. What are they & what is their hard line?
