US Rep. Scott Perry’s (R-York) constituents reacted to a statement he made claiming no one will lose Medicaid coverage if they legitimately need it.

However, millions of Americans will lose their health care coverage if the US Senate approves an $800 billion Medicaid policy that lays out new work requirements.

Those covered by the bill would have to work a minimum of 80 hours a month and prove that they are working every six months.

According to the Center for American Progress, close to 340,000 Pennsylvanians may lose their coverage, including over 20,000 residents living in Perry’s district.
