All the people have now seen and been repulsed by the REPUBLICAN plan for their health...namely 24 Million losing health coverage, no coverage for women health, no Medicaid coverage for children and for the elderly when they need a nursing home, capped insurance etc while paying higher regressive income tax ( that’s coming )... to pay for the health care tax breaks and income/estate tax breaks for the rich ( coming soon — watch ).
Thousands upon thousands of people traveled distances, even braved snowstorms to attend Town Hall meetings to voice their rejection of this AWFUL destruction of our evolving social-democratic society.
WE, THE PEOPLE DON’T WANT a “HEALTH INSURANCE” business contract between us and a private insurance company that’s there to maximize profits for their shareholders by restricting our health care coverage to maximize those profits.
WE WANT and need:
- HEALTH CARE that’s there for us all the time, not maybe depending on our sex, our age, our financial or job status —
- PREVENTIVE CARE like annual physical exams, screening tests, vaccinations etc to keep us healthy,
- ACUTE CARE for when we’re sick, either in outpatient or in- hospital…. coverage IN FULL for when we need surgery, cancer therapy, rehab therapy, mental health and opoid
- MEDICINES with minimal or no copay from profit-limited pharmaceutical companies that compete with each other for our benefit.
NOW IS THE TIME to clearly state our progressive DEMOCRATIC Health Plan, namely MEDICARE FOR ALL.
Lastly let me remind you of what one courageous constituent demanded from her Senator, Tom Cotton at his Town Hall.
“WE WANT WHAT YOU HAVE”
