A conservative group launched a website Wednesday that warns of potentially debilitating effects of expanded government-run healthcare.
The webpage “Government Healthcare Facts,” which was spearheaded by right-wing activist group America Rising Advanced Research, predicts tens of millions of Americans would lose their employer healthcare coverage throughout the country if a public option or a Medicare-For-All-style plan went into effect. Approximately 13,234,000 people in Texas, 8,339,000 in Florida and 18,346,000 in California — the three largest states — would be forced to forfeit their coverage, according to a map posted to the group’s webpage.
