Why we checked itSpecific voting record claim against her opponent — alleges three votes to increase premiums and legislation removing hundreds of thousands of Michiganders from health coverage, both verifiable against congressional records
What we foundThe three votes are confirmed by independent sources, and evidence supports that the legislation will increase premiums and reduce coverage for many Michiganders, but the claim that it has already 'kicked' hundreds of thousands off their healthcare overstates the current impact, as most coverage losses are projected to take effect in 2027 and beyond.
