New York AG: I'll sue if Senate passes ObamaCare repeal

New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman (D) warned Congress on Friday that he would file a lawsuit to protect abortion rights if the Senate passes the House GOP's healthcare bill.

In an interview with CNN's Erin Burnett, Schneiderman attacked the bill, called the American Health Care Act, as "bad public policy."

"It doesn't protect people with pre-existing conditions, it will cost millions of people healthcare," he said.

Schneiderman said that the bill in its current form is unconstitutional due to attacks on "prohibited state funding."

"In a tricky way, [it] tries to wipe out Planned Parenthood," he said. "It's an effort to kill off Planned Parenthood, which would impose an undue burden on women's Constitutionally-protected rights."

Filing a lawsuit against Trump has become a career enhancing act in the Democrat party.

At some point there has to be blowback from Sessions, this could really get dangerous.

Lower courts will declare that it is unconstitutional to not buy what the government tells you to buy. Upsidedown World.

I don't know how you came by your screen name but it reminds me of when I lived on the East Coast, I took a tour of New York, and one of the things they told us was the people that worked down under Manhattan were called ‘sand rats’...I've never forgotten the tour there nor the information they gave us...
