100% spot-on. I want programs for people who can’t afford health insurance, but I don’t want the government to meddle with those of us who don’t need or want the help.
HAMILTON: “I don't think Medicare for all is the right approach. And even though it sounds great, I don't think it's going to pass… I think what we need to do is figure out, how do we ensure that everyone has access to affordable health care, no matter who they are? But I think even using the term Medicare for all alienates a whole group of people that we need to be able to pass some kind of health care reform that allows everyone to have affordable health care.”
Agreed. The threshold is 218 votes. Out of potentially 260 votes possible, we’re up to what, 6 public no’s? The vote is secret & even the public vote in the chamber is performative.

“The majority of Democrats did not run on Medicare for All. You think Adam Hamilton got elected in KS by saying he wants to kick everyone off their private insurance?”
We should fight for universal healthcare. Not force a vote on a bill voters don't want.

This is why the DSA is mad. They lost big time to all those centrist moderates in the Democratic caucus 😬
The House Democratic freshman class will have far fewer Democratic Socialists than members from districts Trump won in 2024. @DanaBashCNN: "Jeffries is certainly going to have a lot of pressure from the left, but he's going to have a lot more pressure, I think, from the middle."

‼️NEW: Byron Donalds places his first general election ad, skips past defending Trump's economy, instead attacks rainbow crosswalks. See it here first.‼️
Hey friends, Byron is looking past his primary and just launched his first ad. Not once does he mention the cost of housing, healthcare, food, or gas. Instead, he attacks me for believing in local control of community celebrations and supporting medical privacy.
I'm running for Governor because your life is too expensive. The economy isn't working for you, but it should. We need to renew investments in housing, healthcare, and education, stop data centers, and protect everyone's rights across our state.
I'm asking for your vote.
Dear @McDonalds yet another horrible experience trying to use the mobile app. “That code doesn’t work. Try to refresh. Oh looks like you just used it.” How? I was sitting right here! You had me wait 2 minutes & the code expired & no purchase so how can I be expired? Store 1257
just had the worst experience @Starbucks - I go to this store every day at noon get my drink & a trenta iced water; barista tells me today no longer doing trentas but then gives a trenta to the guy behind me who he seemed to know. He offered me a tall as an apology.
