We believe healthcare is a right for every American.
But starting today, millions of people will be notified that they are being priced out of their insurance thanks to Republican policies.
Enough is enough. The GOP may shut down the government, but we will stand tall for YOU.

Congress approved this funding for a reason: it saves lives.
This is disgraceful, and families will suffer.
