- Increase the number of Americans without insurance coverage by 24 million by 2026.
- Allow insurance companies to reimpose pre-existing conditions on Americans.
- End enrollment in West Virginia’s successful Medicaid expansion.

Hello, my name is and I am from , West Virginia. I am asking Representative not to support the new amendments to the Republican health bill. These amendments would cut Medicaid funding, cause 24 million to lose insurance coverage, and potentially shut thousands of West Virginians with a pre-existing condition out of the health insurance marketplace.
