Every time one of these dumbasss #Senators starts to talk about healthcare, and this includes ol' #brainworm hisself, is to remind them that we-the-people don't have their level of healthcare (paid by us) in terms of quality or quantity.

Put these dumbasses back on #Obamacare with the rest of us, and then I bet we'll see improvement...

My mother cleaned different houses on different days and none of her employers offered healthcare coverage. When the #ACA aka #Obamacare passed, my mom was able to go to the doctor for the first time in decades. https://aubreyhirsch.substack.com/p/it-could-be-much-much-worse

#Trump is attempting to force #Americans, through #tariffs, to buy American made products, even though they may not want to for a variety of reasons.

It is #ObamaCare expanded to the entire economy.

Some of the same people who screamed about that are cheering this.

“A recent report from the Urban Institute shows that if #Congress removed the extra federal money provided to states in the #Obamacare expansion, #NorthDakota, #Indiana, and #Louisiana would be among the hardest-hit places” www.newyorker.com/news/the-fin...

Don’t Believe Trump’s Promises...

You have until April 11 to leave a comment on Republicans' project to make the Affordable Care Act as useless as possible.

FYI for US #LGBTQ folks/allies: the #Trump administration is soliciting public comments about a proposal to remove gender-affirming care as one of the essential health benefits (#EHB) that must be covered by companies that provide health care insurance through #ACA (#Obamacare). You can read about the proposed change here (Ctrl + F "sex-trait modification"): https://www.federalregister.gov/.../patient-protection...

#23andMe bankruptcy underscores why none of us can have nice things, like #privacy. Your family member who fell for this long con also exposed you! Data brokers are already dealing with insurance companies on your genetic risk profiles, now Americans with a family health history are tainted and soon uninsurable. #Obamacare soon to be replaced with "palliative care gardens" across the street from the hospital with lovely benches to die on.

Well it passed. And I'm ashamed to be a #Democrat right now. Bye by #ebt #foodstamps and #medicaid / #Obamacare. Hello DOUBLE THE TAX CUTS FOR THE #RICH #ONEPERCENT and giving the #senate less power and #trump being a king

Trump has already signed the orders to destroy access to affordable healthcare for tens of millions of people.

How is this putting America first, if he is not aiming to protect the people but to line the pockets of his billionaire buddies?
(Ja puhuttaisko hetki Suomen hallituksesta?)

"Contract Against America".

Whoever decided to turn Newt Gingrich's sick plan from the 1990s ("Contract With America") against the GOP was a genius.

That said, I won't be surprised if the people who voted the GOP into power this year don't stand up and demand that their healthcare be preserved against the tax cuts for billionaires.
