NEW DATA: SCOTT PERRY-BACKED HEALTHCARE CUTS CAUSE MORE THAN 12,400 CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIANS TO DROP INSURANCE COVERAGE

The following information was released by the Pennsylvania Democratic Party:

Perry said it would be a "colossal mistake" to extend the subsidies helping his constituents afford healthcare

PENNSYLVANIA Scott Perry advocated and voted for Republicans' devastating healthcare cuts calling an extension of the Affordable Care Act subsidies "a colossal mistake" and Central Pennsylvanians are already feeling the pain.

New data shows that more than 12,400 of Perry's constituents have already been forced to drop their coverage as Pennsylvanians across Dauphin, Cumberland, and York counties have seen their health insurance premiums rise by an average of 177%.

While Governor Shapiro and Pennsylvania Democrats are standing up to protect Pennsylvanians' healthcare and make life more affordable, Perry and his fellow Pennsylvania Republicans continue putting their loyalty to a toxic, cost-raising agenda first and that's exactly why Central Pennsylvanians will reject Perry and elect Janelle Stelson this November.
