Walt Havenstein Flip Flops on NH Medicaid Expansion Veto

HAVENSTEIN FLIPS ON MEDICAD EXPANSION

Update [ by Skip] : Originally posted 8/19/14.  I won’t accept it from Dems so I CERTAINLY am not going to accept from a Republican, so I have bumped this post as well.  Steve rightly comments on the flip-flop

*******************

Walt Havenstein is confused.

On WMUR’s Close Up this past weekend, with regard to Medicaid Expansion, NH gubernatorial candidate Walt Havenstein said…

“We have to fix that. …I don’t want to kick it down the road…come January 2017, under our current law, that program is going to sunset, that means a lot of people who started off in that program are going to not have that benefit. We can’t have that.”

But just a month ago, at the Belknap County Republican Committee Meeting, Mr. Havenstein was asked about this and Walt (can I call you Walt?) told a room full of Republicans that he would Veto Medicaid Expansion.

Video?  As a matter of fact we do have video of that…


So…..which is it?  You’d veto it, or “we can’t possibly allow it to sunset”?

Wait.  We could just vote for Andrew Hemingway

Problem solved.
