Not long after Junior Clase’s wife wound up in a coma, a U.S. hospital suggested sending her back home to the Dominican Republic. Experts say #medicaldeportation likely occurs more than research accounts for. By @jessisachs & @annmvanderveen: https://t.co/gFAc2cPldN

Hospitals sometimes repatriate uninsured noncitizen patients without their full consent in a practice known as #medicaldeportation. Experts worry cases could rise amid Trump's immigration and #healthcare reforms. ✍️📷by @jessisachs & @annmvanderveen https://t.co/gFAc2cPldN

The University of Colorado Buffaloes of football are headed to a bowl game this winter, and the student-run CU Independent (@The_CUI) is trying to raise funds to send a reporter and a photographer to cover the big game. Contribute via GoFundMe here: https://t.co/LP5fh3xMgp

It’s going to be up to local reporters to cover the very real and very local impacts of what mass deportations and vaccine delegitimization, among other things, will look like on the ground moving forward

This is NOT a political statement btw.

And now, for the most cherished of American journalism traditions: Across the country, rooms full of reporters suffering heartburn from election night pizza all repeatedly click the same button over and over again for the remainder of the night.

[Chris Vanderveen (yep…me) @chrisvanderveen]

Just a friendly reminder.

Journalism isn’t a crime.

Journalists are not the enemy.

Many will work very long days today.

And most of that work will involve distinctly local races.

Have a great day today folks!

Vote.

Early not often.

[Jessica Sachs @Jessisachs]
