3rd Dist GOP opposes Obamacare Medicaid expansion | Eastern North Carolina Now

RINO legislative leaders Phil Berger and Tim Moore are in cahoots with far left Governor Roy Cooper and the Democrats to try to pass the Obamacare Medicaid expansion in North Carolina.  Last session, Berger rammed it through the state Senate, but despite Moore's fancy footwork in the House, it did not pass there yet.  The House Freedom Caucus, led by Rep. Keith Kidwell (R-Beaufort) led the opposition to it in the House.

Polling of voters show that rank and file Republican voters in North Carolina oppose the Obamacare Medicaid expansion.  Now party activists are also getting into the action in opposing it.

The executive committee of the Third Congressional District Republican Party yesterday unanimously passed a resolution opposing the Obamacare Medicaid expansion.  It thanked conservative State Senator Norm Sanderson (R-Pamlico) for voting against the bill in the Senate and expressed disappointment with the GOP senators who voted for it.

The leadership is expected to push the Obamacare Medicaid expansion yet again in a lame duck session in December.  Rep. Keith Kidwell is a principle leader in the fight against it in the House.  Senator Jim Perry (RINO-Kinston) is a top leader pushing for this left wing bill in the Senate (Perry will be Beaufort County's Senator after January).
