Appleton, Wis.(WFRV)--Today, a political group that supports Obamacare toured the Fox Cities.
They say their goal is to highlight what they feel is a growing threat to quality affordable health care.
Advocates, volunteers and health care consumers were on hand to talk to locals about a threat to Medicaid and Medicare.
Citizen Action of Wisconsin's Robert Kraig, "There is a big difference between the candidates on this. The Romney/Ryan ticket wants to turn Medicare into a voucher program and allow insurance companies to discriminate against people with pre-existing conditions and slash Badger Care. In the US Senate race, Tommy Thompson is supporting the same thing against Tammy Baldwin."
The ambulance is on a 16 city tour that ends Wednesday in Janesville.
