Tipton’s vote contradicts his statements

Rep. Scott Tipton just voted for the American Health Care Act.

However, that means a raise in health care premiums for nearly every single one of his constituents in western Colorado).

Look at the interactive map on the Kaiser Foundation Website (kff.org); almost his entire district is blue, which means an increase in premiums .

This directly contradicts his website which states: “one of my top priorities is to pass legislation to replace the broken healthcare system created by the so-called Affordable Care Act (ACA), with one that makes health care affordable and accessible for Coloradans.”

How is this bill making it affordable? He voted to increase all our premiums.
