The "Republican" Governor of TN has tried to ram Obamacare down everyone's throats.
Fortunately the grassroots put up enough pressure that the legislators were too scared of losing their seats in the next election. It failed in a Senate Committee vote moments ago.
As such, Obamacare (Medicaid Expansion) in TN is killed, at least for now. This is the 3rd time he has tried to bring Obamacare to TN, the first being trying to set up an exchange, and the second being a previous attempt at expanding Medicaid.
