Timothy Beson, Republican State Representative Candidate of District 96, is supported by organizations threatening to repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA). This dangerous rhetoric could lead to hundreds of thousands of Michiganders losing their health care coverage.
Timothy Beson is supported by the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB). This organization’s president has called for the Affordable Care Act to be repealed. This is a direct attack on Michiganders with pre-existing conditions, who rely on the ACA for coverage they need to survive. Repealing the ACA would leave 1.2 million Michiganders uninsured and vulnerable.
Related to an attack on health care, Beson is also supported by Michigan Right to Life. This organization opposes a women’s right to choose, even in circumstances of rape and incest. It also supports medical care providers denying care based on their religious beliefs, putting women in need of life-saving care at risk.
Overall, these attacks on health care for women, those with pre-existing conditions, and Michiganders who rely on the coverage offered by the ACA to survive, are dangerous and irresponsible. Timothy Beson would put the health of Michiganders in extreme danger.
