ObamaCare in PA Update: Abortion Coverage Banned, Still No Medicaid Expansion [VIDEO]

[Counterpoint PA]

This is a video from my new show, Counterpoint PA, the only grassroots progressive newscast exclusively about Pennsylvania politics.

In this video, I discuss PA Republicans' strict ban on abortion coverage in the state health insurance exchange being created as part of ObamaCare that has now been signed into law and a group of Republican state senators who momentarily became fighters for Medicaid expansion and could have made it happen but then reversed their positions to allow its obstruction to continue.
