#IL09 UPDATE: Laura Fine @laurafineforIL9 has now benefitted from >$5.7 MILLION in spending by the pro-Israel lobby.
An AIPAC-linked shell PAC, Elect Chicago Women (ECW), has spent nearly $3.8 million on independent expenditures supporting Fine, and another $1.4 million opposing J Street-backed Daniel Biss.
Another AIPAC-linked shell PAC, Chicago Progressive Partnership, has started running ads against Kat Abughazaleh, spending $165,500 so far.
Defending a healthcare system thatโs failing us is our own American version of Stockholm syndrome (except theyโve got much better healthcare in Stockholm).
My thoughts with @briantylercohen:
@MalloryMcMorrow Private health care is what drives up costs and makes the ability to see a doctor a privilege for those who can afford it. A single-payer public option would save taxpayers money, and everyone who needs medical care can get it. This is the system civilized countries have today.
