@claire_mcandrew @TeamWaxman Congrats, Claire — I’m delighted that you landed at a wonderful place!
@claire_mcandrew @FishmanEliot @FamiliesUSA @cparcham @dwlemmon @halsnebeeson @LenaOrourke @ellahush @BethWikler @RWise_health @WVKatConsulting @JLSullivan It was an extraordinary moment. As we learn from social movements, there is no such thing as final victories or final defeats. We must keep on keeping on — and we will!
Protecting democracy must occur as we protect people’s health and income. CONGRESS MUST GUARANTEE ACCESS TO MAIL VOTING THIS NOVEMBER, and preparation for this should happen soon! Make this demand as viral as possible!

Poor People’s Campaign Puts the Spotlight on Poverty | Portside portside.org/2020-02-22/poo…
Today’s @latimes: 2 front page stories & 2 op-eds on homelessness & housing, top concerns for most Californians, and #OurHomesOurVotes2020 letter urging @Yamiche @JudyWoodruff @IAmAmnaNawaz to ask candidates at #DemDebate how they’ll address the crisis.
@richarenberg — Congrats on your WashPost piece. It is timely: My friends at Indivisible, hoping for a 2020 sweep of the WH, House and Senate are pushing to eliminate the filibuster so major progressive legislation can pass. I’ve suggested caution about this.
WORTH SHARING: Go see/hear the movie “Amazing Grace,” featuring an hour-and-one-half of the incomparable Lady Soul, Aretha Franklin, singing soul-gospel music during a 2-day church concert in 1972. Her voice and presence are beyond unique! Find this movie!
Hallelujah: work requirements as condition for getting Medicaid in Arkansas and Kentucky have been declared illegal. These work requirements have nothing to do with helping people gain jobs and everything to do with cutting tens of thousands of people from health coverage.
Trump said Repubs will soon be known as “the party of health care.” It’s true: he is taking away health coverage for tens of millions of people; harming people with pre-existing conditions; decimating Medicaid; and increasing families’ out-of-pocket costs. An enviable reputation?
DONALD TRUMP RENEWS HIS ATTACK ON HEALTHCARE: By asking a federal court to repeal the Affordable Care Act, he seeks to eliminate protections for people with pre-existing health conditions and eliminate health coverage for many millions of people. The man knows no shame!
On this 9th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act, we should celebrate the enormous number of people (approx 20 million) who gained health coverage, AND we should re-dedicate ourselves to finishing the job of covering everyone else (like the approx 29 million still uninsured).
Go get ‘em, Ben! Your leadership in Wisconsin will not only be terrific for the State, but it can have a profound national impact!
Yesterday was my last day at @MoveOn—an organization, and a group of people, that I love. Starting today, I'm focused full-time on running for Chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin. Grateful to the allies & partners I've worked with—and to those joining with our ticket now.
These so-called “waivers” are not truly waivers. Given the Administration’s promotion of doing this on a wholesale basis in many states, it is an illegal attempt to change Medicaid without congressional approval!
Our third lawsuit (after KY and AR) challenging HHS' approval of harmful Medicaid waivers that erode coverage and fail to promote the objectives of Medicaid.
20 million people could lose health coverage. Over 100 million with some form of pre-existing health condition could lose insurance protections. This is what ACA opponents, like President Trump, are celebrating about the lower court ruling in Texas. SHAME, SHAME!
After the Affordable Care Act was enacted, it was challenged as being unconstitutional because IT CONTAINED A MANDATE TO GET COVERAGE. That challenge lost. Now the same opponents say it is unconstitutional because IT DOES NOT HAVE SUCH A MANDATE. It’s grasping at legal straws!
In 2010, BEFORE THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT WAS IMPLEMENTED, Republicans won the House based on repudiation of the legislation. In 2018, NOW THAT IT IS BEING IMPLEMENTED, the Democrats flipped the House based on strong support of the program.
MEDICAID TO MOVE FORWARD: Referenda to expand the program won in Idaho, Nebraska, and Utah. A Democrat is now Governor of Maine, which will allow that successful referendum to move forward. And Gubernatorial wins in Kansas and Wisconsin may help as well.
