Brown: In a state of 12 million people, half a million are going to lose their insurance.
People didn’t vote for that. They didn’t vote for higher grocery bills. They didn’t vote for veterans’ benefits being slashed. They didn’t vote for any of this.
People didn’t vote for that. They didn’t vote for higher grocery bills. They didn’t vote for veterans’ benefits being slashed. They didn’t vote for any of this.
These two things—healthcare and veterans—are at the center of my life. I’m a healthcare attorney and a caregiver to a disabled vet.
Along with many other constituents, I demanded that Rob Wittman vote no.
He wouldn’t hear us.
So I’m trying to take his job to bring the voices of #VA01 back to DC.

That term should be music to voters’ ears EVERYWHERE.
The unlimited dark money pouring into politics is the root of much evil in our polarized politics today. Monetized rage bait in media is a huge profit maker too.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.
While giving thanks for all of the wonderful people in our lives, we’re also spending our final hours with my beautiful baby girl. She’s been with us nearly 10 years, and by my side for it all. We’re on borrowed time, but at least we have today.
My heart is in pieces.

One clear example of how the rich write our laws:
Thanks to this year’s Congress, the first $15,000,000 a kid inherits doesn’t get taxed at all.
If you actually work for your money, taxes start at $14,601.
The rich gutted our silver spoon laws, just because they can.
