Republicans are STILL trying to take away protections for people with pre-existing conditions and kick tens of millions off their health coverage. https://t.co/U9QOKQHFRL
I live w/10+ #PreExistingConditions
I've made 22 trips to DC to #ProtectOurCare
It is truly up to ALL of us to #SaveTheACA
Listen to the echoes of my footsteps in the halls of Congress
We ALL need to engage with our Members of Congress. Please call or email them tomorrow. 💪
If Republicans win their anti-health care lawsuit, nearly 20 million Americans will lose their health coverage – including 226,000 in my state of New Mexico. I refuse to give up our fight to #ProtectOurCare! https://t.co/4f6i8yUSib
Hey Senate Republicans, oral arguments yesterday in your Obamacare case suggest you may get your way and the whole ACA is eliminated. 20m will lose coverage. Millions more w preexisting conditions w see huge rate spikes.
So...like...what’s your plan then?
⚠️⚠️⚠️ LONG, GRAPHICS-HEAVY THREAD: How many would lose healthcare coverage and how much *federal funding* would YOUR Congressional District lose if Trump & GOP win their #TexasFoldEm lawsuit to repeal the #ACA?
When I testified at the Kavanaugh hearings on behalf of people w/ #PreExistingConditions, I got trolled pretty hard by grown-ups.
They told me the Supreme Court had nothing to do with the #ACA.
#TexasvUS begins today.
Don't underestimate kids when #WhatsAtStake is OUR future.
Do you see that house behind my parents?
12 years after this photo my mom will lose this house because of medical expenses related to my younger brother.
This is why I fight for the ACA.
Spread the word:
@realDonaldTrump & Republicans are trying to repeal health care in court
Tomorrow the 5th Circuit will hear their arguments on ending our health care law & pre-existing condition protections
Remember this next time they tell you they support those protections
REMINDER: in under 24 hours, the Trump Administration will head to court to overturn the Affordable Care Act and
❌ Strike down protections for pre-existing conditions
❌ End Medicaid expansion
❌ Allow insurance companies to charge women more than men
As the #ACA lawsuit reaches the 5th circuit, I have 1 request of every one of YOU: Please do NOT be silent.
Your #PreExistingConditions PROTECTIONS are at grave risk!
Please ENGAGE with your Members of Congress.
We can NOT go backwards. #ProtectOurCare
The Republicans' health care lawsuit aims to take away every protection families have gained, including for pre-existing conditions. It’s shameful—& Republicans should know Democrats are NOT going to stop holding them accountable for it. #ProtectOurCare
Here in the Wisconsin Capitol room 412E, where the GOP-controlled Joint Finance Committee is voting to strip away plank after plank of the wildly popular People’s Budget proposed by @GovEvers. Every seat full. “Expand BadgerCare” stickers everywhere.
🚨 WISCONSIN 🚨
GOP Legislature is planning to vote to block Medicare expansion. Please read and share the thread below for multiple, concrete actions you can take to stop them.
#ProtectOurCare
🚨 WISCONSIN: GOP legislature votes *tomorrow*—Thu 5/9—to rip Medicaid expansion out of the governor's budget. If they win, 82,000 people won't get coverage. $1.6 billion in public dollars won't return to the state. Individual market premiums won't be reduced. Time to fight. 1/
SURPRISE!
This patient advocate is making an unscheduled trip of advocacy to DC.
This will be my 18th trip to #ProtectOurCare
Because the protections of 130 million with #PreExistingConditions waits for no one. 💪
I hope you will follow me on my journey today!
