U.S. Sen. Susan Collins all but said she would vote “no” on an Affordable Care Act repeal bill on Friday morning at an event in Portland.
“I’m leaning against the bill,” the Maine Republican said after listing a series of serious deficiencies in the Graham-Cassidy repeal bill.
“I’m just trying to do what I believe is the right thing for the people of Maine,” Collins said.
She said Graham-Cassidy undermines pre-existing conditions, a major flaw in the bill.
“I’m reading the fine print on Graham-Cassidy,” Collins said. She said insurers could charge sky-high rates to people with pre-existing conditions. “The premiums would be so high they would be unaffordable,”

Susan Collins: ‘I want to screw the fine people of Maine’. Fixed it...
The reality is that the republicans are better off without a Obamacare replacement. Nobody likes healthcare so if you own it you will not be popular.
They should move on to other things. The wall would be nice.
She is saying make me an offer.
