Friend, 

The government will shut down tomorrow at midnight unless Republicans pass a funding bill.

Republicans control the White House, the House, and the Senate. It’s their responsibility to keep the government open – and if they want our votes, they have to negotiate. Period.

Right now millions of Americans' health care hangs in the balance. Beginning next month, health insurance costs could skyrocket unless Congress extends subsidies under the Affordable Care Act. So I’m pushing Congress to extend these subsidies immediately.

But I need your help – with only hours until the government is expected to shut down, we need a full court press to protect health care for millions. Can you chip in $20 or $50 right now to help us win this critical fight?

Friend, it's pretty simple: 

Republicans can join us in keeping the government open and protecting health care for millions of Americans – or they will be responsible for shutting the government down.

Thank you,

-Joaquin
