Labrador faces skeptical CdA crowd

Facing a largely skeptical crowd, Rep. Raul Labrador defended his vote for the Republican health care bill Friday evening at a town hall meeting that packed the 500-capacity Lake City High School auditorium in Coeur d’Alene.

“We want to help all Americans, not just a small group of Americans,” Labrador said, echoing a refrain from another town hall in North Idaho earlier Friday, a day after the House of Representatives narrowly approved a bill replacing key provisions of the Affordable Care Act. “What our bill did, was it created a process that will reduce the health insurance costs for a majority of Americans.”

Over the course of nearly two hours, more than a dozen people took to the microphone to condemn the Republican bill/Kip Hill, SR. More here.
