Thread. #Wisconsin story via @jessieopie about aftermath of a Republican campaign gimmick. GOP legislators, supporting a lawsuit that would declare all of Obamacare unconstitutional, pledged state legislation protecting people w/pre-existing conditions if legal gambit failed.
They are now seeking to negotiate state legislation with new Democratic @GovEvers, whose response has been to suggest a bill that would do everything Obamacare does in Wisconsin if Republicans’ lawsuit to repeal Obamacare nationally succeeds.
Republicans in the legislature are outraged. They want to save their seats, not Obamacare. Why can’t @GovEvers see that and just, you know, work with them? This is headed for a bill Republicans will pass, Democrats will say (accurately) is meaningless, and Evers will veto.
