Retired RN, Mom, Grandma, democrat, optimist but realist, want equal women’s rights and equal rights for all, I refuse to go back!
Even though we knew it it’s eye opening to see it written. Maybe it should also be called: How to buy a president in one easy step many times over.

There's 2 main reasons for this:

First, because traditional Medicare hasn't really had its benefits significantly expanded in 20 years (except the $2K/yr cap on drug co-pays added under Biden).

Second, because Med Advantage spends a FORTUNE on advertising to seniors.

Ohio House today passed the SB1 higher education bill, goes to DeWine to sign. The outpouring of opposition was swift and heavy but they don’t give a damn. This bill is like George Orwell’s 1984, meddling in what is taught. Critical thinking skills will suffer. Or maybe the point, make ‘em robots.

YOU ARE WRONG! CAN’T OBEY IN ADVANCE! IT WON’T EVEN TAKE THE 6 MONTHS MORE THAT YOU WANT TO GIVE THEM TO DESTROY IT ALL! YOU DON’T WANT TO LEAD, STEP ASIDE. A SHUTDOWN WILL FORCE THEM TO THE TABLE WITH DEM OFFER FOR A 4 WEEK CR. UNPRECEDENTED TIMES ARE REAL, NOT BUSINESS AS USUAL!

clerk.house.gov/member_info/... A file of current Reps, & Senators. Top of pg.1 explains this: Rs and Ds in different fonts. Name, state, then their 5 digit office extension. ALL office direct numbers are 202-22 + extension! Make calls to several, rotate, Reps or Sens. do what you can when you can!

I don’t have a megaphone but I call at least 10 senators daily and will add reps re budget. I emailed & called the WHCA today. Isuggested a boycott for a day or more whatever it takes. Courage is doing the hard like you do every day, Marc. Thank you and your team for everything!

Called Gov. DeWine this am about potential Medicaid cuts and again, mailbox full. The Oh Senate President said Ohio Constitution requires a balanced budget, no choice it was amended many yrs ago requiring our schools be funded equitably by the state not our property taxes. STILL WAITING ON THAT!

I have been using for 2wks! It’s easy, top of the page tells you how to dial, first 202-22 and add the 5 digits listed to the right of their name. Font is different, italics for Dems, T.N. Roman Repubs. I call at least 10 Senators R&Ds both daily, leave message or talk to staff if answered.

Me again, I just called Sen.Cassidy again, re video that Kash Patel, lied in his hearing. I talked to a staff member, kind and patiently listened, said he would pass along my message. I am realistic that my call may not change a mind, but if I don’t call for sure nothing will be changed.

It may be why in interviews Brian Tyler Cohen Representatives Hakeem Jeffries and Jamie Raskin showed a fighting spirit and told us some of what they are doing. Doesn’t matter why at the moment just that they are! Watch full interviews here or on YouTube

Thank you Brian! I listen to your No Lie podcasts often! You are so good at posing intelligent and meaningful questions! EVERYONE - listen to these interviews with Representatives Jamie Raskin and Hakeem Jeffries. This is the Spirit and the Fight we have been waiting to hear!!

I call Sen. Cassidy most days, whatever is news. Call this am was about Trumps newest executive order and now about his post on measles. His Senate page says he is a man of faith. Sometimes I recite Mark 8, 36-37, selling one’s soul and what shall man give in exchange for his soul.

OMG!! WOW!! She must of flunked high school civics class! Did she get her law degree at “How to Become A Lawyer in One Easy Lesson.com??” Me thinks she is not the sharpest pencil in the box!

I just did it! Made me laugh and made me feel good! Ok, back to planning my tomorrow’s phone calls to Republican senators!!

Call your Senators & Representative. Have a Medicare Advantage plan, call your insurance provider.Call your local AARP office. There’s one in all 50 states. If your parent(s) can’t, you do it! It is ILLEGAL, a clear violation of HIPAA & other privacy laws. Please get in the fight! Do it TODAY. 2/2
