DENVER—Rep. Betsy Markey says she wouldn’t have voted for the federal health care overhaul if it included special state deals, like a Medicaid financing deal for Nebraska that was removed.
The Colorado Democrat held a town hall by phone Tuesday to discuss the law.
She opposed an earlier version of the health care bill. In response to a caller, she said the version she supported does a better job of taking care of small business owners and reducing health care costs by allowing people to enter pools that could negotiate lower premiums.
She says constituents who called or wrote to her were about evenly split on the bill.
