Medical emergencies, medical expenses & medical care are among the leading reasons Americans declare bankruptcy! Felon/GOP’s Big Ugly Bill increase the likelihood that a majority of Americans face financial ruin from medical costs & loss of Medicaid! Not a billionaire? Felon/GOP say too bad, so sad!
