As a result of Katko’s vote, NY insurer raised rates 39%
Balter Releases 4th Television Ad
Syracuse, NY – Today, Dana Balter launched the fourth TV ad of her general election campaign, highlighting Katko’s vote that raised healthcare costs for thousands of central and western New Yorkers. The ad can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/890_anbbYIk
“Once again, John Katko has shown he has little regard for the truth,” Balter said. “It is disappointing but not surprising that his latest attack ad resorts to more dishonest tactics typical of DC politicians. The part of my comment he doesn’t want voters to hear is that my healthcare plan will save families money. No amount of twisting my words can distract from the fact that John Katko’s vote for the tax bill is raising our insurance premiums by as much as 39% next year. He is costing the people of this district more money while giving massive tax breaks to his corporate donors.”
