Southwest Michigan is ground zero after #Trumpcare passed due to the flip flop from Rep. Fred Upton. The Upton amendment, which provides little more than a talking point for Republicans to hide behind when they try to pretend they are standing up for people with pre-existing conditions, was enough to sway the handful of votes needed to begin the process of stripping 24 million people of healthcare.
It also energized a growing Democratic movement in Southwest Michigan.
Progressive in Southwest Michigan are coming together on Friday, May 12, to not only help State Representative Jon Hoadley, the only Democratic legislator in the 6th Congressional District, but also take action with a number of progressive organizations. We need to resist, stay engaged, and support those who are fighting along with us.
