When I read this letter I wanted to share it with you. If we listen to the people...if we listen to their stories...we will know that this Bill to "replace" the Affordable Health Care Bill will be a disaster for millions of people.
To date--the bill has not passed...we're not talking about politics or Democrats or Republicans--we are talking about human beings. The manner in which we deal with this problem will reflect the kind of people we truly are.
"Dear Roger,
I am one of 317,000 South Carolinians who has gained health care coverage as a result of the Affordable Care Act. Before Obamacare, I had not been able to see a doctor for over 20 years.
When I finally had insurance and could see a doctor, I was diagnosed with cancer. Without the Affordable Care Act, I would have died. After a grueling treatment regimen, I am scheduled for surgery next week. If the Affordable Care Act is repealed, my life will once again be in danger.
I need your help. And I am far from alone. Senate Republicans have been working behind closed doors on a secret plan to repeal the Affordable Care Act, and today they're revealing their version of Trumpcare. As it turns out, it is a whole lot like the House version of Trumpcare, which would have taken health insurance away from more than 400,000 South Carolinians.
Lives are literally at stake, including my own. Let's keep up the fight together.
Sincerely,
Sam Martin
Former SCDP State Executive Committeeman, Newberry County"
Nicholas Kristof, great columnist for the New York Times has written two great articles about this attempt to dismantle the Affordable Health Care Act. The first relates too the Drug War and what will happen if this new Health Care Bill is passed.
The second article by Kristof listens to the stories about Health Care as it relates to women and Planned Parenthood. And so should we. Use your influence to express how you feel about this subject.
