not sure the posting policy of the post star- but the gist of the story is that cuomo is threatening to punish businesses that don't abide by the current affordable care act even if President Trump repeals obamacare- He is also going to tell regulators to prohibit insurers from 'discriminating' against customers
“We will not stand idly by as ultra-conservatives in Washington try to roll back the progress we have made to expand access to quality, affordable health care, putting our most vulnerable New Yorkers at risk,” Cuomo said. “These aggressive actions will make certain that no matter what happens in Congress, the people of New York will not have to worry about losing access to the quality medical care they need and deserve.”
Cuomo is also apparently going to ignore the fact that the US is no longer part of the paris agreement
Will never happen. Makes good reading but Cuomo will never do it!
“the state will ban companies that withdraw from the state health care exchange from participating in programs such as Medicaid or from contracting with the state government”
sounds like a classic case of cutting off one’s nose to spite one’s face
Wow. Maybe money does grow on trees in NY. When they are going down the toilet, they should not think the taxpayers in sane states are going to bail them out. Let them go bankrupt.
States and cities will gladly further bankrupt their citizens pursuing the leftist agenda.
It’s sickening and wrong, but I have to compare the pure chutzpah of the democrats to the pathetic cowardice of republicans. Every democrat will speak up to attack Trump, while republicans are so busy being polite and compliant.
Good. Make NY Broke Again.
At this stage, given the push back in Congress, I would let it implode and tell the democrats you broke it, you own it.
Cuomo, one of the few last surviving Marxist Governors.
Who’s gon’na pick up the tab?
How will he pay for it?........................
There seem to be quite a few......................
Not much to worry about there.
And the rates skyrocket...
Most companies that leave the exchange do so to avoid sticking it to potential customers. But if he really wants monthly premiums in the 5400 range, I’m sure there are plenty of companies willing to do so.
Bingo ..... New Detroit part deux !
aka, the poor democrat voters with their hands out for the government to fill. It's an attempt to show the democrat voter that Cuomo cares, which we all know is BS.
I’m glad I don’t live in NY.
Many of the NYers I meet who live in FL say the same thing.
Most, but not all vote Rat.
5.56mm
Taxpayers ain’t fleeing the state fast enough.
Rumor has it NYS is gonna lose another House seat after the next census. I’ll be amazed if it’s only one.
... and free college for everyone and lower taxes for everyone except conservatives because we don’t like them and and other free stuff you want so vote Democrat..”
Cuomo, the same jerk weed who wants to increase gun control.
