It’s a day that ends in “y,” which means Derrick Van Orden is full of shit. 

After starting the day by ranting about how he and other Washington Republicans poised to rubber stamp Medicaid cuts are “not a bunch of little bitches,” Van Orden penned a meaningless, cowardly letter to Governor Evers begging the Governor to clean up his mess by increasing the state’s provider tax. 

This letter makes it clear that Van Orden knows that the Big, Ugly Bill he’s set to cast a critical vote for will decimate Wisconsin’s rural hospitals and kick Wisconsinites off their health care.

DCCC Spokesperson Katie Smith:
“Derrick Van Orden knows his vote for the Big, Ugly Bill will rip critically needed funding away from Wisconsin’s rural hospitals and kick Wisconsinites off their health care – but he’s too much of a coward to do anything about it because he cares more about giving handouts to billionaires than doing what’s right for Wisconsin.”
