Stop this bill. It will kill.
We did not send you to Washington to cause deaths. We did not send you to Washington to enrich the billionaires via tax cuts while exploding the deficit.
Who do you work for?
The cuts to Medicare and Medicaid in the bad reconciliation bill will KILL. Yes: they will cause deaths because people will be unable to afford health care.
They will also wreck health more widely by causing small hospitals, especially rural hospitals, to close, removing convenient access even for this who still have plans that enable them to get health care.
As you know, there are calculations for the numbers losing health care and the numbers who will DIE.
The house version so the budget bill would kick 15 million off health insurance. If you don't care about their lives and survival consider the effect on a local economy of more people sick, out of work because of untreated health issues, and job loss when a hospital closes.
Is THIS what you want?
THIS alone should be enough to ensure you NO on this reconciliation bill.
Come to your senses.
Find your human decency.
Stop putting fear of other electeds before your moral duty to our lives and well behind and your sworn duty to the constitution.
I am incensed that I even have to write to ask elected public servants to put our lives before their wish to serve the greed of oligarchs.
