She stated: "The representative's actions have supported her rhetoric. For much her discourse, Greene repeatedly sided with colleagues attempting to gut health insurance."
Congressional data reveal the representative supported Medicaid reductions along with cuts to increased subsidies under the Affordable Care Act over warmer season, though the lawmaker subsequently spoke against medical coverage cuts when insurance costs increased this fall.
Conservative Responses
