Buttigieg on Indiana: "The big part of how Trumpism works is to make you feel totally disempowered. To make him feel inevitable. And yet the clear takeaway from this is he is not unstoppable and you are not without power."

🎉 BREAKING: WE DID IT! 🎉

After days of intense pressure from D.C., the Indiana Senate REJECTED the mid-decade gerrymandered map!

This victory belongs to every Indivisible member, every activist, and every Hoosier who called, emailed, and showed up.

Republicans who want payments made to HSAs, you need to provide data on the actuarial value of this approach.
High Deductible plans, with HSA deposits, are useless if the patient can't afford their deductible.

Which is the ultimate problem with no CSR, ACA plans.
