NBC News reported last year that Bresnahan sold over $150,000 in Medicaid related stocks before voting to cut the program by $1 trillion dollars, and the New York Times reported that he sold between $100,000 and $250,000 worth of bonds from the Allegheny County Hospital Development Authority for the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.

Over 310,000 Pennsylvanians are expected to lose their Medicaid coverage once these cuts go into effect after this year’s election, and, according to the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services, these cuts will impact over 21,000 of Bresnahan’s constituents.
“Families all over Northeastern Pennsylvania are struggling to get by while Congressman Rob Bresnahan keeps getting richer,” Action Together NEPA Executive Director Alisha Hoffman-Mirilovich said in a statement.

“We hear from constituents every day who are making impossible choices — whether they can afford medication or groceries, rent or electricity, gas or childcare. Bresnahan’s vote on the tax law that could benefit his own family is a betrayal of his constituents and proves that he doesn’t understand the needs of the people he’s supposed to represent.”
