Home and community-based services are less expensive than nursing homes, and we know most seniors & individuals with disabilities prefer to get care in the comfort of their homes, where they can maintain independence. I filed an amendment to ensure HCBS isn't cut in this bill.

AOC: When you wake up in the morning, you will realize that you voted to defund planned parenthood and take away health care from 13.7 million Americans and when this country wakes up there will be consequences to pay for this

Adriana Smith’s story MUST be told so America can understand what’s at stake when draconian abortion laws like the one in GA keep a brain dead pregnant woman on life support just so the fetus can be delivered.

What kind of dystopian hellscape has Dobbs created?

D: I just read them to you!

Phang: And you’ve got to appreciate that the congresswoman was able to say, “Look, this ain’t Fox News, buddy. This is Congress.” So if you’re going to be here and you’re going to try to make an allegation somewhere publicly, you better be able to back it up.

I have stopped watching CNN since the Election. Here is one of WHY.
Gov. Beshear went on CNN to talk about devastating tornados that just hit his state, but CNN has books to sell:

While Trump crows about supporting mothers & kids, remember...

-His FDA suspended one of its quality-control programs for milk

-He’s trying to repeal limits on lead exposure and cancel grants that protect kids from chemicals

-Car seat and stroller prices are up due to tariffs

Medicaid covers...

-40% of births nationwide
-50% of kids with special needs
-72 million people in total

Remember this as Republicans move to gut the program to finance tax cuts that will overwhelmingly go to the richest 1% of Americans.
