Medicaid covers home care services for seniors including my mother-in-law.

Cutting it to hand out greedy billionaire tax breaks is outrageous and disgraceful!

What happens if there is no one to take care of your mom?

Can you afford to quit your job to care for her full-time?

I am excited to endorse Jocelyn Benson for Governor of Michigan. We share a passion for marathon running. Just as she has conquered the miles, I am confident she will tackle the challenges facing Michigan with the same determination and spirit she exhibits as Michigan's Secretary of State.

Incredible that this is ok?
The people of western North Carolina are desperate for help from their state government. Yet, the legislative Republicans just enacted a power grab, not hurricane relief. To use folks’ incredible need for aid as a cloak for their political pettiness is frankly despicable.
