I just left the House floor, and I wanted to reach out.

If you’re one of the millions of Americans like me who know what it’s like to live paycheck to paycheck, today has been nothing short of devastating.

My Republican colleagues knew that this bill hurts everyone who isn’t already a billionaire. They knew it would throw 17 million Americans off their health care, shutter nursing homes, and bankrupt rural hospitals. But they voted for it anyway.

Why? Because Donald Trump told them to.

Those aren’t the actions of real leaders. Those are the actions of politicians who are more concerned about staying in the good graces of Donald Trump than with the needs of their constituents.

So even though today has been enormously difficult for so many of us, I’m not giving up. Because Kansans deserve a government that is responsible, transparent, and accountable — and I’m going to keep fighting every minute of every day until we make that a reality.

If you’re with me, I hope I can count on your support. Because the only way we can win this fight is by fighting together.
