START CLOSE IN
Start close in,
don't take the second step
or the third,
start with the first
thing
close in,
the step
you don't want to take.
Start with
the ground
you know,
the pale ground
beneath your feet,
your own
way to begin
the conversation.
Start with your own
question...

In just a month, 10,000 people in MA dropped their health insurance. That's 2x more than last year.

10,000 mommas, grandpas, aunts, neighbors, and friends who looked at their bill and said "I can't do this."

Because Republicans won’t lift a finger to lower health care costs.
