Dean Heller has already admitted he supports ending federal funding for Medicaid Expansion, which covers 200,000 Nevadans.

GOP leadership already blew Dean Heller’s cover.
Dean Heller admitted behind closed doors that he will “do everything I can to get to a yes” on repealing health care, and his support for rolling back Medicaid expansion had him well on his way to “yes.” Even if Heller doesn’t care that this is terrible policy for Nevadans, Senate Republican leadership understands that this bill is political suicide, and so they want to “LET” him vote against it. Don’t be fooled by Heller’s song and dance today — he’s just following another marching order from Mitch McConnell and Washington Republicans.

Dean Heller has voted at least 20 times to take away or undermine Nevadans’ health care.
One GOP senator Republican leaders want to let vote "no" is Sen. Dean Heller…if they lose 2 conservatives that can't happen…

In 2015, Heller voted for more than $1.3 TRILLION in Medicaid cuts – even bigger than what it’s in the AHCA. This is about politics, plain and simple.
