With less than seven months until full implementation, families all across the Commonwealth are looking at their wallets and wondering just how much more health insurance will cost next year. In California, insurance rates could DOUBLE next year.  In neighboring Maryland, rates are soaring.

 

 We can stop a key part of Obamacare from coming to Virginia...

 

...but we need to stand up now and make our voices heard!

Gov. McDonnell has formed a legislative panel made up of several members of the House of Delegates and State Senate to vote on Medicaid expansion in the Commonwealth. The first meeting will be held on Monday, June 17th at the Capital in Richmond. Join AFP to tell our representatives in the State House "NO" to Obamacare and "NO" to Medicaid expansion.
