Today marks eight years in remission. Grateful every day.

This election can determine whether millions of Americans pay more for healthcare — or lose coverage altogether, suffer, struggle and die.
💙 Protect Medicaid.
💙 Restore ACA tax credits.
💙 Lower premiums.
💙 Lower prescription drug costs.
💙 Save lives.
Getting sick shouldn't bankrupt you... but without a #BlueWaveIn7Days it will.
SO VOTE EARLY. VOTE NOW. VOTE NOV 3.

REPUBLICANS SHATTERED OUR ECONOMY with Trump's tariffs, illegal Iran war and Big Ugly Bill that gutted Medicaid and SNAP — healthcare and food for millions.
Now, FAMILIES PAY MORE for gas, groceries, healthcare and power.
NOV. 3RD ➡️ THEY PAY AT THE BALLOT BOX. #BlueWaveIn7Days

Republican congressional candidate Brent Taylor has sent unsolicited nude photos as recently as 2021. He dismisses his past sexual advances as “youthful indiscretions"
At that time, Taylor was 53

WELKER: Is a vote for you a vote for the Trump agenda?
MIKE ROGERS: Um, I'm apologizing. I'm having some difficultly in my earpiece. But is a vote for you? I'm not sure. I'll tell you what a vote for me is. It's a great day for the state of Michigan

TRUMP on HIGH GAS PRICES: We’re making money like we’ve never made before. They’ll say: President Trump is bragging about all the money they're making while people are suffering at the pump. I don’t give a damn. We’re making a freaking fortune.

🚨🚨🚨Rob McColley admits Vivek believes that Amy was raped by her Mother’s husband and that Amy’s Mom chose to stay with Amy’s rapist. Vivek Ramaswamy decided to use this woman in an ad anyway. Truly horrifying.

Mediaite: Amy Acton’s Mother Was Convicted of Killing Kittens
New information about the criminal history of Donna Arthur, the estranged mother of Ohio Democratic nominee for governor, Amy Acton, is coming to light amid the backlash about her appearance in a Vivek Ramaswamy ad — including her conviction for animal neglect after several kittens in her care died in a hot car

Q: Amy Acton's stepfather was indicted for rape. Now that you know all that, sir, do you change your mind about the ad?
Trump: No. I don't care

Connect the dots: Republicans in Congress hand billionaires tax breaks, then claim there's no money for your health care, then act shocked when premiums spike. It's one system working exactly as designed. Dismantle it the only way that works - vote early. #VoteEarlyDay
