The newest health care bill
Sep. 22nd, 2017 10:36 amI have been trying my best to keep my outrage over the Trump administration's actions out of my journal, but I have to post about this latest attempt to overturn the Affordable Care Act. This latest bill appears to be the worst so far and must be stopped. I live in a state with two Democrat senators and my representative is a Democrat. There's not much I can do at a local level to influence Republican voting. But if you have Republican representatives, and care at all about the future of Medicare, then please reach out to them and urge them not to support this bill.

My name is ______. I live in TOWN, STATE and I’m a constituent of the Senator’s.
I’m calling to urge the Senator to vote NO on the newest version of Trumpcare, known as Graham-Cassidy. This bill still destroys Medicare and devastates Medicaid.
Tens of millions of Americans will lose their health insurance.
Health care legislation should leave people better off. This bill doesn't. Please share my thoughts with the Senator and urge them to vote against the Graham-Cassidy health care bill.
