November 18th, 2013 by WCBC Radio

Change Maryland is blasting Lieutenant Governor and Democratic gubernatorial candidate Anthony Brown, pointing out that he indicated in a recent interivew that he knew some Marylanders would lose their healthcare coverage after the October 1st rollout of Maryland's implementation of the Affordable Care Act. According to reports, 73,000 Maryland residents are expected to lose their healthcare coverage.

"The O'Malley-Brown Administration has been one of the biggest cheerleaders for the ACA and Lt. Governor Brown is responsible for implementing Maryland's version of the law," said Larry Hogan, Chairman of the nonpartisan grassroots organization Change Maryland. "Last night, Anthony Brown admitted that he knew many Marylanders could not keep their insurance despite promises to the contrary. By remaining silent, he intentionally misled thousands of mothers, fathers, and children who depend on health care insurance for the treatment they need."

During the interview, Brown stated he knew that healthcare plans would no longer be available under Maryland's implementation of the ACA.
