.@JohnCornyn has been working for years to destroy the Affordable Care Act and sabotage your health care, and now #CorporateCornyn might finally get his chance to make his corporate donors very happy.

The Supreme Court is on the ballot — and so is our health care. 🧵

#CorporateCornyn has a long record of trying to keep Texans from getting the health care they need. After the Affordable Care Act was passed, Cornyn opposed closing the Medicaid coverage gap in Texas — even though we had the nation’s highest uninsured rate.

#CorporateCornyn voted 20 times to repeal the Affordable Care Act — earning him the name "Repeal's Top Salesman."

His schemes could gut protections for 4.8 million Texans with pre-existing conditions, increase Texans’ premiums by 78%, and impose an age tax on older Texans.

Why would @JohnCornyn fight so hard to keep millions of his constituents uninsured and without health care?

Follow the money: #CorporateCornyn has taken more than $1.9 million from the insurance industry since he was elected to the Senate.

And #CorporateCornyn’s bill to repeal the Affordable Care Act wouldn't have just gut your health care — it also gave health insurers a sweet $145 billion tax break.

Since #CorporateCornyn couldn't get the votes to repeal the Affordable Care Act, he's repeatedly supported lawsuits to overturn it.

Now, his political allies are suing to repeal the ACA. The Supreme Court will hear the case in just a few weeks, and Cornyn is standing by.

#CorporateCornyn desperately wants to repeal the ACA for his corporate donors, even though he KNOWS that millions of Texans are depending on it — especially now, in the middle of a pandemic and an economic crisis.

And he admits it:

.@JohnCornyn is in his toughest race yet, so he's lying through his teeth that he'll protect your health care coverage.

Texans know better. We need to vote to protect our health care from John Cornyn and the hyper-partisan judges he'd confirm to SCOTUS. MJForTexas.com/DefendHealthCa…
