House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) urged Democrats to hone in on the issue of health care ahead of the midterm elections Tuesday.
"I write to acknowledge the vital role Congressional Democrats played in protecting the Affordable Care Act and exposing the GOPs monstrous health care agenda and I urge all of us to continue to push this message in the next 24 hours," Pelosi wrote in a letter to House Democrats.
"Tomorrow, the American people will decide on the fate of our nation and the future of Americas working families. Health care is the key factor in voters decisions."
Democratic congressional candidates have zeroed in on health care and protections for people with pre-existing conditions in their campaigns, putting Republicans on the defensive for attempting to repeal ObamaCare.

(51,584 posts)All the local campaigns have it as their #1 issue. This is why the GOP and the fucking moron are lying so much about the GOP's plan for covering pre-existing conditions. Fortunately too many people aren't buying their BS lies about the ACA like they did in 2016. Back then they didn't realize that Fux Ruse and the GOP were calling out Obamacare as the evil healthcare plan. They were too ignorant to realize that Obamacare and the ACA are THE SAME THING! When the GOP tried to take it away from them they educated themselves pretty damn fast and said, "Wait, I need this! My family needs this!".
