Starting yesterday, notifications of higher premiums are being sent to 90,000 Minnesotans.

I heard from a small business owner in Eagan whose premium will increase by *at least* $450 a month. That’s $5,400 a year.

That’s why we’re fighting to extend the health care tax credit.

In the spring, the Trump administration abruptly cut $500 million from an emergency food assistance program that delivered meat, dairy, eggs and produce to food banks across the country.

Thousands of planned deliveries were canceled without warning.

STEPHANOPOULOS: The Democratic proposal is designed to prevent millions of Americans from losing their health insurance, losing Medicaid coverage, or paying higher healthcare premiums. Why are you against that?

You're right, Donald. We’re not stupid.

When you broke your promise to protect Medicaid by enacting a $1 trillion cut, you sold out hospitals and health coverage for millions.

Democrats just want you to keep your promise.

Repeal the cuts.

Millions of Americans without a stable home internet connection, especially in rural areas, rely on hotspots to access telemedicine, complete their homework, or apply for jobs. 

The FCC is attempting to take away those hotspots—worsening the digital divide.
Millions of students and seniors depend on hotspots and school bus Wi-Fi for homework and tele-health services.
