22 million Americans uninsured over a decade. One-sixth of the economy completely rewritten. And tens of thousands of people who need medical treatment and drugs to live won’t get it.
The Senate wants to vote this week on passing Trumpcare, the mean-spirited, pro-insurance corporation and straight-up stupid Affordable Health Care Act repeal bill. The margin for passing is razor thin and could come down to a single moderate Republican’s vote.
There’s no other way to put this: we need to do every single thing we can to stop this bill. It’s an outrageous handout to health insurance companies and one of the cruelest attacks on low-income Americans in decades. Literally tens of millions will lose their health care coverage and good, hard-working people will die because they can’t get the care they need.
This Bill kills. Stop Trumpcare now.
One of the most inspiring things about the Trump Era is the way ordinary Americans from every walk of life, of every color, creed and class have come forward to say no. We’ve stalled or stopped the worst of Trump’s vile, hateful campaign promises. And we’re building a movement that can finally put him and his billionaire pals out of power for good.
But those who stand to lose their health coverage can’t wait for the next election. We need to kill this bill now.
It can be done. America stopped the first Trumpcare bill and hundreds of thousands of SumOfUs members worldwide have come forward to protect public health care in the UK. To turn this bill away, we may only need to convince a single additional GOP senator to follow their conscience—or, failing that, their re-election chances. SumOfUs members could literally make the difference between life or death.
Please. Join us and tell the Senate to vote against the Republican Health Care Bill.
