- spiralx 3y agoRomney got on board with the push for increasing healthcare coverage in MA and helped get the Medicare waiver required for MassHealth, but he didn't propose the system and vetoed significant parts of it, most of which was overridden by the state legislature. "Romneycare" was the name his GOP opponents gave it when he was running to be the Presidential nominee in 2012.
