I need to move back to Illinois. I love my governor in Kentucky (Andy Beshear is awesome) but the legislative branch will squash anything good he wants to do.

The Justice Dept needs to change its name - there is no justice coming out of there. Breonna Taylor deserves justice now.

The increase of 10.9M uninsured Americans by 2034 will add $20.6B in uncompensated care costs, per Americs's Essential Hospitals. Need more reasons to call your congressmen and women?!?!

The states with highest number of hospitals at risk are Kentucky at 35, Louisiana at 33, California at 28, and Oklahoma at 21. Hospital uncompensated care costs will increase to projected $42.4B by 2034. 🧵

GA, LA, MS, and TX would see their uninsured rates increase by 6 percentage points. KNG Health Consulting said the loss of enhanced premium tax credits would result in $28B reduction in hospital spending over 10 years. Also, could place 338 financially struggling hospitals at risk of closing. 🧵

According to KFF, a health policy organization, the uninsured rate will increase by amount 5 percentage points by 2034. The increases in insurance rates will vary; estimates are Florida would see highest increase in uninsured with a 9 percentage point increase by 2034. 🧵

3) more than 1.2M people will incur medical debt, 3)246k people will be turned away from medical care because of medical debts, 4) 300k women will miss recommended mammograms 🧵

In addition, the proposed Medicaid cuts will cause: 1) more than 1.9M people will lose access to a physician, 2)more than 1.3M people will forego needed medications 🧵

Fortunately, I've got the West Wing staff on my side. They found Zoey, so they'll easily find me.

Where were you five months ago?

Well done. Thank you.

Oh, don't put anything beyond Mitch. I can assure you he will do anything to keep his wallet fat & his power intact. He has called T despicable, detached from reality, yet Mitch still supports him.
Mitch's retirement next year can't happen soon enough.KY needs help finding an electable replacement.

Kentucky is very proud of our governor.

This will sound crasser than I mean it to...but, what does T have on these people?? The only thing I can think that would be so horrible is pictures of them with farm animals.

Unfortunately, you speak truth.

Doesn't mean anything. My husband is 74 and if he were our Senator, he would to stand tall against the destruction of our Constitution by the Republicans and T, and loudly vote "no" against cloture.
Age truly isn't an indication of a person's morals, ethics, and intelligence.

You rock!
