GOP Senators Suddenly Defend Obamacare Provisions

“Republican senators facing tough re-election fights this fall are expressing support for insurance protections for people with pre-existing medical conditions, running ads at odds with their own recent votes and policy positions,” NBC News reports.

“The latest example came Tuesday when Sen. Cory Gardner (R-CO), who has voted repeatedly to repeal the Obamacare law that established those federal protections, released an emotional ad in which he sits with his mother and discusses her successful battle with cancer.”
