Millions of Americans are about to see their healthcare costs skyrocket, and Republicans in Congress just let it happen. Extending ACA credits should've been the easiest decision in the world.

The stories of pregnant women in ICE detention — one shackled while miscarrying, another placed in solitary confinement with a high-risk pregnancy — are not one offs.
They're a clear pattern of neglect where ICE ignores its own rules. This cruelty must end.

When people go uninsured, they skip out on doctor's visits, they go without their medications, and they end up in the ER.
If you don't believe me, I asked a doctor to lay out what happens when people aren't covered for the care they need.
Health care should be a right.

A WA state family told me they are about to see their health care premiums increase from $772 a month to nearly $2,400!
That is absolutely absurd.
While Republicans keep sitting on their hands, Democrats will keep fighting for your health care.

It's been over 9 months since the Palisades and Eaton Fires tore through Los Angeles. We asked for federal support, but we haven’t heard a word from the White House.
Not a single offer.
Is this what leadership looks like? Abandoning the American people when they call for help?
