If Senate Dems allow this deal to go through without ACA premium assistance, they will make it much harder for disabled people to work. They are already getting screwed because of HR1, losing medicaid and SNAP funding. www.americanprogress.org/article/aca-...

Ro, it's been awhile since I've gotten to agree with you. This is 100% correct.
Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

The anti-vax movement has been immune to appeals for community health since its inception.
That’s why the U.S. has laws around childhood vaccines for school entry. We must do everything we can to prevent further slippage.

Canada has just lost measles elimination status. The U.S. will undoubtedly follow shortly.
Elimination means that there is no continuous spreading of measles within the country for a year or longer.
Canada and the U.S. have blown it, and it’s largely the fault of the anti-vaccination movement.
