Yeah, totally. I hear that, like, all the time. From friends, family, at the soccer field, at the hair salon. It’s definitely a thing that all people are saying. For sure.
Scalise: "Everybody complains, 'Why when I watch TV do I see this Gecko lizard & emu & all these animals out there selling car insurance & homeowners insurance? Why aren't they selling healthcare?' That's bc federal laws prohibit people to have choices for lower cost products for health insurance"

What a joke. Millions of Americans will see their premiums double or triple starting Jan 1st. The deadline to sign up for coverage is Dec. 15th. The GOP caused this crisis and now we’re down to the wire and they’re wasting time with their unserious plans. Extend the tax credits!

I’m running for Congress in Virginia’s 5th District because families and workers deserve a fair shot. Costs keep rising while salaries aren’t - and MAGA Republicans are cutting food & health care to fund corporate tax breaks instead of defending Virginia’s families.
