Bucy's Medicaid expansion amendment fails, 80-60. During the vote, @RepStickland exclaims, "Socialism -- right here." Stickland again: "Health care is not a right." #txlege #txbudget #Medicaid #ACA #Obamacarepic.twitter.com/XQxBvopD67

Health care is not a right yet physicians take a Hippocratic Oath to do no harm and not deny treatment to a sick human being, whose illness may affect the person's family and economic stability. Such text should be added to oath of office.
