Don't take away our healthcare
Don't take away our health care. The Affordable Care Act has made a huge difference in millions of Americans' lives. Don't repeal it!
Why is this important?
President-elect Donald Trump's first priority when he assumes office is to take away our healthcare. He plans to issue executive orders to repeal the Affordable Care Act as soon as January 20.
The Affordable Care Act has made a huge difference in my life. My son was born with a rare congenital disorder which affected his heart, airways, and kidneys. He went into respiratory distress and the pediatric surgeons saved his life. He was in intensive care for quite a while, and in his first month of life of he racked up $100,000 in medical debt.
If it weren't for the ACA, my family would have to declare bankruptcy. The ACA not only helped cover my son's medical bills, but it has provided us with no lifetime limits on his coverage, and he can't be denied health coverage because of his condition.
There are many families and individuals out there like me who had a major medical event happen without warning. The ACA was there for us. Protecting the ACA is not an ideological thing for us. It's affects our real lives, and repealing it would put so many of us in a bad position.
As your constituents, we urge you to please stand up and protect our healthcare.
