They're back and it is worse than before...McConnell must get this win and now he has the votes!


McCain and Collins have been bought off while the country was distracted with hurricanes, Hillary's book, and Single Payer. Call Congress (often) and tell them to go to HELL for destroying the lives of 23 million people. Everyone's effected by this...if you are pregnant that is a pre existing condition, if you do not get a promised raise, it is due to your employer's insurance going up and it is passed onto you, if you are ill,
over 55, a woman, a senior, taking care of your parents or children, financially strapped, etc... (202)224-3121 Call and tell the greedy, hypocritical GOP sociopaths to go to the hell reserved for the 1% who will get richer by repealing the ACA!

I was on a conference call with Congresswoman Barbara Lee (CA) last Tues and from what I understand McConnell is pushing this through now because he CAN still do it with the majority like in July, but when the calendar expires in two weeks they will need 60.
