John Roth, Republican State Representative Candidate of District 104, has a track record of fighting against the Affordable Care Act (ACA). His opposition to the ACA puts Michiganders, especially those with preexisting conditions, at extreme risk.
John Roth attacked President Obama and Michigan legislators based on a false representation of the ACA’s impact. In fact, as of 2020, around 1.2 million Michiganders are insured by the ACA, making this poor representation of the ACA’s effect on coverage even worse.
John Roth is supported by extreme groups that directly threaten the health care of Michiganders. These groups are fighting to repeal the ACA, and are against a women’s right to choose. He is backed by Americans for Prosperity, who fight for reduced government oversight, including fighting to repeal the ACA.
Roth is also supported by Michigan Right to Life, an organization that is notorious for their extreme stance against abortion, even in instances of rape of incest.
John Roth’s extreme stance against the Affordable Care Act has the potential to harm Michiganders, especially those with preexisting conditions, who rely on the coverage provided to survive.
