(3/3) "I just had a major surgery and I had to put up a GoFundMe to pay for the recovery because I haven't been able to work.⁣⁣ (2/3) "Even under the ACA [Affordable Care Act], many uninsured people cite the high cost of insurance as the main reason they lack coverage. In 2018, 45% of uninsured adults said that they remained uninsured because the cost of coverage was too high. Many people do not have access to coverage through a job, and some people, particularly poor adults in states that did not expand Medicaid, remain ineligible for financial assistance for coverage. Some people who are eligible for financial assistance under the ACA may not know they can get help, while others have income above the cutoff for financial assistance. Additionally, undocumented immigrants are ineligible for Medicaid or Marketplace coverage."⁣ (1/2) It wasn't long ago that we could all safely leave our homes. Yet even then, healthcare was one of the issues most voters spoke to us about.⁣ (3/3) A dead campaign is never truly dead unless those who drew inspiration from their candidates give up on thier ideas.

If I'm a politician and I want to get re-elected I need, at some point, to consider where my donations are coming from.⁣ (1/3) Adrian was among the 17,000 people who gathered to hear Bernie speak in Los Angeles where he told us that what he sees today is a lot of division.⁣
