From Max Plesset MD (Springs, East Hampton)
Dear Senator McCain,
I have always respected your independence, judgement and thoughtful decision making. Now you have a serious malignancy and I am sorry for that. Undoubtedly you are receiving the best of care that the American health system has to offer. However, it is clear that the Graham-Cassidy bill will jeopardize the kind of care you are getting for a large number of our citizens and your constituents in Arizona. By transferring most if not all of the current federal health care dollars to block grants to the states many people, especially medicaid patients, will be at the mercy of the state spending priorities. Please uphold your integrity as you did before by voting no on this bill. Thank you for considering my email.
