We Found the Real Death Panel

Tuesday, MoveOn members came right to the front door of New York City’s Waldorf Astoria hotel—where Republican governors were meeting with major corporate donors—and held a mock meeting of the Republican Death Panel. They read stories from MoveOn members in Texas, North Carolina, and other states affected by the Medicaid Blockade, and from 12 p.m. until 8 p.m. MoveOn’s mobile billboard drove through midtown Manhattan alerting hundreds of thousands of people to the fact that we’ve found the real death panel.

By denying life-saving health care access to vulnerable citizens in 21 states, Republican governors have formed their own de facto death panel—and by one estimate, their negligence could kill as many as 17,000 people each year.²
