A Maine woman retired early to be a caregiver for her terminally ill mother.
Now she’s facing cancer herself, and because ACA subsidies won’t be extended, she is losing her healthcare.
Her costs are going up for $49,000 a year.
This isn’t healthcare, it’s eugenics.
Medicare for all.

The 8 Dems who voted against ACA are embracing eugenics.
This decision will disproportionately harm disabled people.
Many Disabled people have pre existing conditions & won’t be able to afford insurance.
Many live in legislated poverty.
Guess we aren’t dying fast enough for them

The Senate proposal tonight offers nothing different than the House version
No guarantee of even a vote for the Tax Subsidies for the ACA
No guarantee that furloughed Fed Workers would get their jobs back
So, why the fuck are you voting for it ?

I took my mom to the White House garden tour in 2012, and we spent some time talking with the NPS vegetable gardener. It was awesome. The garden was also a bit of a throwback to the early republic—which Republicans should love—Jefferson had sheep grazing on the grounds.
