Portman’s staff told police NOT to remove the protesters:
This is bad news for Republicans who can’t afford to lose the vote of Portman if they have any hope of passing the health care bill. Portman, like Sen. Dean Heller of Nevada, is a Senator from a state with a governor who opposes the proposed cuts to Medicaid in the Senate health care bill.
Portman may let the protesters stay, and vote for the bill, but the fact that his office has told police not to remove protesters is a good omen for those who want to save Obamacare.
