It would be a lot more informative to know who’s actually for it. The National Funeral Directors Association?

Is anyone besides the republican senate caucus actually for this bill?

Bill “Hopalong” Cassidy has evidently forgotten the first canon of medical practice,or simply never took it to heart - Do No Harm. Instead ,with this horrific and hypocritical bill ,he is proposing to do violent harm to millions ,by causing millions to lose coverage altogether,exposing people with pre-existing conditions to the mercy of insurance companies, and decimating Medicaid. The AMA should suspend his license to practice medicine as he is more a butcher than a healer.

As usual, this TPM piece is totally biased.

There are plenty of trade groups that support repealing Obamacare:

  • The National Morticians Association.
  • The American Society of Embalmers.
  • The US Cemeteries Coalition.
  • The Cremation Alliance.
  • The Burial-at-Sea Federation.

But I guess all those organizations just don’t count to the liberal media…

So, if we believe Sen. Butters Graham, the AMA is in favor of … socialism? Pull the other one, Senator. You’ll hear bells.

The AMA has nothing to do with licensing. That’s a state matter. The AMA is a trade and lobbying association, with no authority anywhere.
