The House Passed an Awful Health Care Bill. Tell the Senate to Oppose It!
The petition to members of the U.S. Senate says the following:
You must oppose the new bill to repeal the Affordable Care Act. This bill would be a disaster for working people like me. It would gut protections for people with pre-existing conditions, take away health care from tens of millions of people, raise health care costs for millions more, decimate Medicaid and give a huge tax break to the super-rich and corporate CEOs, while taxing workplace health benefits. We need a health care plan that expands coverage for everyone, not one that cuts it. Please oppose this bill.
Paulo Augusto,
I’ve seen a lot of shameful votes come out of Congress in the past couple of years, but Thursday’s vote to pass the despicable new Republican health care bill could be the worst.
There is a glimmer of hope, though. Right now, there are several Republican senators who are against the bill or who haven’t said whether they’d support it. That’s because of the pressure people are putting on their lawmakers. We can stop this bill, but only if we show there is a groundswell against it.
We’re going to work harder than ever to stop this horrible bill—and I want to make sure you’re ready to fight with us.
We need to make this bill so toxic, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell won’t be able to bring it up for a vote.
Our principle in opposing it is simple: Everyone has a right to comprehensive, affordable health care. This bill takes us far, far in the opposite direction.
It guts protections for people with cancer, diabetes and other pre-existing conditions. It will take away health benefits from 24 million people by 2026, hurt millions more people by taxing the health benefits they get through a job, decimate Medicaid and cut funding for Medicare, while doing nothing about out-of-control prescription drug prices.
Republicans also added tons of tax breaks for the super-rich, corporations and health care CEOs—hundreds of billions of dollars, in fact—which will be paid for by cuts to health benefits for seniors, people with disabilities and families struggling to make ends meet.
In solidarity,
Rich

TRUMPCARE IS NOT A HEALTH CARE BILL AT ALL. IT'S A MASSIVE TRANSFER OF WEALTH FROM WORKING CLASS PEOPLE TO THE WEALTHY FEW.

Testimony on how i got my LOAN from fundingloanplc@yahoo.com ...
ReplyDeleteI'm Isabella Tyson from 1910 N Halsted St Unit 3, Chicago IL60614 USA,, i have been searching for a genuine loan company for the past few months and all i got was bunch of scams who made me to trust them and at the end of the day took my money without giving anything in return, all hope was lost i got confused and frustrated, i find it very difficult to feed my family and vowed never to have anything to do with loan companies on net and went to seek of assistance from a very good friend which i explained all my experience regarding online companies with and said he can help me that he knows of a Godsent and well known company called FUNDING CIRCLE PLC, he stated he just got a loan from them although i was still very unsure about this company due to my past experience but i decided to give it a try and did as i was directed by my friend and applied, i never believed but i tried and to my greatest surprise i received my loan in my bank account within 24 hours, i could not believe that i would stand on my feet financially again. I’m glad I took the risk and applied for the loan and today i'm thanking God that such loan companies still exist and promise to share the good news to people who are in need of financial assistance because the rate of scams on net is getting very serious and i don't want people to fall victim when we still have genuine and Godsent lenders.. You can contact this Godsent company using the information as stated and be a partaker of this great testimony.. Email: fundingloanplc@yahoo.com OR Call/Text +14067326622 thanks
