Americans pay some of the highest prices in the world for health care, and Leigh McGowan knows that first hand.

Democrats are fighting to lower health care costs. Instead of helping to fix this crisis, Republicans are shutting down the government.
Leigh McGowan says: I was offered life insurance because I was turning 30. They said, "You can get a really low premium if you do it now. I thought, "Life insurance? I'm 29.”

Literally two years later, I had a terminal disease and now I don't qualify for life insurance. So, anytime you think you're healthy and you don't need health care, get health care.

And if we start messing with the system now, it is all of us who are going to fall through the cracks.
Leigh McGowan says: My entire family is on the ACA, but I have a very rare disease. So, I am not one of those people that even if the premiums go up, I can just go off of it. One of my drugs costs $130,000 a month. One of my drugs.

Senator Warren responds: If Trump and the Republicans succeed and keep ramming these cuts through, there are going to be millions more people who have no coverage.

Apparently $20B of our taxpayer money wasn't enough to bail out Argentina.

Now Trump wants U.S. banks to divert ANOTHER $20B away from lending to American businesses, farmers, and families to prop up Milei's corrupt presidency and failing economy.

So much for America First.

We need rules in place to protect regular investors in crypto and private equity – not a shadowy system that lines the pockets of crypto billionaires and giant private equity firms.

A downturn in these markets could put our whole economy at risk.

You might be losing your health care, but don’t worry — Republicans are hard at work wining and dining billionaires to fund Trump’s new ballroom.

More and more Americans are literally being forced to use GoFundMe to survive.

So what are Donald Trump and the Republicans doing to help?

Ripping away families' health care and jacking up insurance premiums to pay for giant tax handouts for their billionaire buddies.

You can understand this shutdown with 3 numbers.

15M — the number of people Republicans want to kick off health care

20M — the number of people Republicans want to 2x health premiums for

0 — the number of times Republicans have called the House back to reopen the government

Donald Trump is giving $20 billion of taxpayer money to Argentina – to help his political ally stay in power and bail out Wall Street hedge funds – while Americans at home can't afford health care or groceries.

While he helps Wall Street get richer, Trump wants to make it harder for you to open up a small business.

Health insurance companies are finalizing their rates RIGHT NOW.

Doesn't matter if you're in a red or blue state, your premium might skyrocket.

And somehow, Republican senators are okay with throwing thousands of their own constituents under the bus.

Some families in America are on track to pay over $22,000 more per YEAR for their health insurance.

Where are their Republican senators?
Three panels of Senator Elizabeth Warren saying:

Thanks to Republicans in Congress, a 60-year-old couple making $85k/year will have to pay over $22,000 more EVERY YEAR to keep their coverage.

TWENTY TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS.

For families already hanging on by their fingernails, that could be a matter of life and death.

Today must also be an important step toward lasting peace in the region — peace for both Israelis and Palestinians. We must end the war in Gaza, surge humanitarian aid, and negotiate a two-state solution now.

I'm thinking of them and their families on this joyful day and praying for their full recovery. I'm also grieving for all those who can't come home today.

Because of Republicans’ massive health care cuts, millions of American families will see their premiums skyrocket. That could mean having to choose between paying for health care or electricity.

That's how dire our health care crisis is.

That's why Democrats are not giving up.
