IMPORTANT POINT: For millions of American families, the Trump-GOP hike in health-insurance premiums set for the end of the year will far outweigh any minor tax cut they may receive from the president's Big Ugly Bill.

Rep. Casar is absolutely right.

It's long past time to make billionaires pay their fair share. The wealthiest 1% in this country have seen their fortunes explode while working families struggle to keep up.

"Thomas Paine devoted himself to the American patriot cause because he believed in government by the people, not by the wealthy and connected few. He recognized the economy and the polity are inextricably linked and citizens cannot have an equal voice in politics while wealth is extremely unequal."

I've been reposting everyone replying to this post with their own ACA (and sometimes employer!) price hikes. Feel free to add yours. There is some comfort in knowing you aren't alone and knowing we'll all be voting on this issue in a year.

Chuck Schumer should be chucked out. #chuckchuck

In a staggering display of cruelty, the Trump regime will only issue partial payments this month to the 42 million people who need food assistance, including 16 million children.

Trump said he’ll send out only partial payments this month, and it’s unclear when recipients will get them.
