Healthcare Fight Grows
b'We open the show with Sen. Ron Johnson\\u2019s very disturbing comment that he is pushing his fellow Senators to legalize insurance industry discrimination against people with pre-existing conditions. We also discuss the surprising support by the Republican leading on the Opioid epidemic, Rep. John Nygren, for Gov. Walker\\u2019s shameless plan to force drug test BadgerCare recipients. We welcome new Citizen Action organizer Katie Dunn to tell us about the \\u201cHealthcare For All\\u201d Organizing Cooperative she is launching with healthcare professionals, consumers and advocates. The new cooperative will have a launch party next Thursday, June 15th at 6:30 in Milwaukee (Details below.) Turning to threats in Congress, Liz Ryan Murray, the policy director at People\\u2019s Action, joins us to talk about the CHOICE Act which deregulates Wall Street and payday lenders. Finally, Jorna Taylor joins us to discuss Paul Ryan\\u2019s new vulnerability in the 2018 election, including 3 candidates already running against the author of the wildly unpopular TrumpCare.'
