Fake News: AHCA Does Not Make Rape A Pre-Existing Condition
by Casey | May 8, 2017 | Blog, Fake News
The GOP House’s health care bill has been attacked as making rape a pre-existing condition that wouldn’t be covered under the bill’s language. Meaning … an insurance provider could deny coverage to you if you were raped. The fact that you have to put special willful effort into not having your pre-existing condition covered under the AHCA (even MORE protections were added with the Upton amendment) has been ignored. Instead, it’s been replaced with mythology that the AHCA won’t cover pre-existing conditions. A claim that is patently false.
The most of these false claims is that evil Republican men are ripping coverage away from women who have been raped by removing any pre-existing coverage requirement for rape related injuries.
This claim has been debunked by … well … pretty much everyone. Here’s a couple of links just to start:
Reason.com
Lifezette.com
Washington Post
Associated Press Fact Check
And while all of those sources clearly debunk this nonsensical claim by amoebas, the next link is the most important. Why? Because NY Mag started the rumor, and has now retracted their bogus claim.
After running the initial headline:
Under New Health-Care Bill, Rape Is a Preexisting Condition
They now have this correction in the article:
Correction: This story originally stated that rape is considered a pre-existing condition in the AHCA. It has been updated to reflect that conditions stemming from sexual assault and domestic violence, such as PTSD and certain STDs, could be considered preexisting conditions, not sexual assault itself.
There, now that that is settled … why am I still seeing amoebas sharing this nonsense on social media? That was rhetorical. They are idiots, liars, and only interested in the politics of fear and personal destruction. They are not interested in truth, facts or decency.

The media and Democrats have been out there saying if you have pre-existing conditions, you won’t be covered by the GOP‘s AHCA. That isn’t true, and it wasn’t true before the Upton amendment ensured there could be no doubt. However, as we all know, when it comes to health anything, the Democrats rallying cry is that the GOP will murder people. That too is a lie. We do know Obamacare killed people.
As I have illustrated countless times over the years on my show … when you whip people up into a frenzy, and make them fearful of their safety, their brains shut off, and you can control them. That’s what liberals are doing now. The AHCA (in current House form) is FAR from perfect, but it is far better than the mess we have now. I hope the Senate makes it better.
Rep. Brian Mast (R-Fla.) is a double amputee, and he had some words for Democrats lying about pre-existing conditions in the AHCA.
“Who is it that’s going out there and saying pre-existing conditions won’t be covered?” he continued. “It is the exact same group of people that went out there and lied to the face of every single American, telling them that if they like their plan, they would keep their doctor; if they like their doctor, they would keep their doctor. That was a bald-faced lie.”
Boom.

House Passes Obamacare Repeal Bill | The Daily Caller
The House passed an Obamacare replacement bill 217 to 213 Thursday, in a successful second attempt to deal with the health care law.
Backed by GOP leaders, Mich. Rep. Fred Upton offers health bill revision
The existing version of the health care legislation would let states get federal waivers allowing insurers to charge higher premiums to people with pre-existing illnesses who’d let their coverage lapse. That infuriated many moderates, who have promised to continue protections for such people. Under Obama’s law, insurers must charge healthy and seriously ill customers the same rates.
