Justin Brannan Wrote ANOTHER Op-Ed, Instead of Taking Action for NYC With Legislation
Councilman Justin Brannan wrote ANOTHER opt. ed.
This time Brannan went after Donald Trump and Project 2025. Project 2025 is a 922 page document that some people say is the plan if Trump is elected again. (See Project 2025 here)
Donald Trump claimed he did not know who wrote Project 2025. CNN found that 140 people who worked for Trump were involved in Project 2025. (Source)
In Justin Brannan’s article, Brannan explained that Project 2025 will change healthcare drastically for Brooklynites.
On page 498 of Project 2025, it states that Medicare Advantage will be the default enrollment option:
Former NYC workers know that Medicare Advantage is an inferior plan, as some retirees were forced on it for a short time. (Info)
AARP commented on Medicare Advantage:
Justin Brannan tells us he’s a union man and is fighting like hell for Brooklyn. So why did Brannan write an op-ed for an online publication, rather than writing a bill to protect NYC residents from Medicare Advantage?
Now is the time for NYC Council to take action against Trump and make sure that NYC employees and retirees don’t have to deal with Medicare Advantage. They can ban the use of Medicare Advantage in NYC and that would protect everyone.
