Next year, a lot of folks are going to see their premiums go up $1,000 or more per month because of a Republican policy.
If you start having to pay $1,000 extra every month, what will you stop being able to afford?
This is what Democrats are fighting to stop.

After-tax income under the Trump/GOP budget:
-People making less than $17/k year: LOSE $1000
-People making between $17k and $51k/yr: LOSE $700
-People making over $4.3M/year: GAIN $389,000
This is what class warfare looks like.
