Thank you @WhipClyburn for all your leadership to close the coverage gap and bring health care to those in our state who have been left behind by our state

[James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn]

Women in many GOP-led states w/ high maternal mortality will now be forced to give birth. Medicaid expansion, while no substitute for abortion rights, reduces maternal deaths—yet 12 states still refuse. We must close the coverage gap to save women’s lives.

At this very moment, Senate Dems are negotiating a reconciliation bill they hope to pass by August.

We need to ensure everyone in SC has healthcare and BBB through @WhipClyburn leadership has a fix. Make your calls and make sure the Senate passes this important protection

[James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn]

I agree. We must close close the coverage gap to make health care accessible and affordable to millions of Americans in the states that have refused to expand Medicaid.

I am a pediatrician in South Carolina. My kids have graduated from public school education.
Every pediatrician I know with young kids is absolutely terrified of school starting.
There is a message in that.

Everyone deserves legal representation in our country and housing security is crucial, especially during a pandemic. Proud to lead my colleagues in supporting the use of federal funds for legal aid to prevent evictions.

Good news! A fed judge struck down a Trump admin rule that would have cut SNAP benefits for 700,000 people. The rule “radically & abruptly alters decades of regulatory practice, leaving States scrambling & exponentially increasing #foodinsecurity” https://t.co/A4OLbXBIoa

I just got off the phone with a woman who is on unemployment. She said the questions asked her to tell the agency an address she lived *** 17 years ago ***

She got the question right, but only bc she went back through the records she keeps.

Immigrant workers are over-represented among both essential workers & those who are now unemployed, yet have been excluded from receiving the #COVID19 stimulus many needed to stay afloat. Congress must act to ensure all families get the help they need #ChildrenThrive

[Sueberkowitz @Sueberkowitz]

COVID-19 — include immigrant families and children in relief effort https://t.co/qt1aplS6S5 @AppleseedSC
