Tomorrow is
the 14th Anniversary of the Affordable Care Act, one of the most
transformative pieces of legislation for people with pre-existing
conditions. For people like me.

When I was a child, I was diagnosed with a serious illness and spent three
months in the hospital. When I got better, my grandparents, who raised me,
began looking for an insurance policy that would cover me in the future.

But they couldn’t find such a policy because of my previous illness. Not
from any insurer. Not at any price. They had to pay for my health care out
of pocket — and they had to make enormous sacrifices to do so — all
because I was a child labeled with those words: "pre-existing condition."

I got into public service because I saw my grandparents stay up late at
night, worried sick that I would fall ill again and that they wouldn't be
able to afford my care. No one should ever have to go through that.

Like 133 million Americans, I know what it's like to have the label
"pre-existing condition" attached to my care — and before the Affordable
Care Act was passed, many of us could be denied coverage.

Now, insurance companies can no longer discriminate against someone based
on their pre-existing condition. I championed health reform and fought to
allow young people to stay on their parent’s insurance plan up to age 26.
These policy changes have led to millions more Americans getting the
health insurance they need.

But if Eric Hovde flips this seat and secures the Senate majority for
Republicans, the Affordable Care Act will be on the chopping block and
countless Americans could find themselves in a place where insurance
companies, once again, write all the rules.

The people of Wisconsin did not send me to Washington to take people’s
health care away, which is why I've fought against Republican repeal
efforts and why I will never back down. But I can’t defend the hard-fought
progress we’ve made without your help.

[ [link removed] ]So before the ACA’s 14th anniversary, I’m humbly asking: Will you make
a donation to my reelection campaign to defend our Senate majority? That’s
the only way we’ll prevent Republicans from rolling back the progress
we’ve made expanding access to affordable health care.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your
donation will go through immediately:

[ [link removed] ]CHIP IN $10 NOW

[ [link removed] ]CHIP IN $25 NOW

[ [link removed] ]CHIP IN $50 NOW

[ [link removed] ]CHIP IN $100 NOW

[ [link removed] ]ANOTHER AMOUNT

I am not going to let anyone make me forget where I came from or why I got
into public service in the first place. My experience has always inspired
my work to do everything I can to make sure that every American has
quality, affordable health care coverage and stand up against those who
want to take it away.

As long as you're with me, I know we can overcome any challenge we may
face on the road ahead and stop Republicans from taking away health
insurance from millions of Americans once and for all.
