When is the AARP going to come out against this piece of shit health bill?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

You can become a member at 50. The closer you get to Medicare eligibility age the more expensive your insurance becomes?

1. I thought I saw something online that AARP already came out against it. ???

4. There is nothing on their web site about it.

Just a video on drug prices which praises Trump and urges Congress to go along....

took over

3. Most of their customers are over 64

and that in it's self means even higher costs.

7. They have an Advocacy & Gov Watch area on their website...

I'm not seeing anything more than against block grants and the 'age tax' ATM but they like what Trump said about lowering Rx costs.

Here's their Government Watch page:

They have a separate FB page for advocacy:

Although we're not paying members ATM I'm on their regular and activist FB pages and email lists.
