Friend,

So here we are. The government is shut down. Again.

Why? Because Donald Trump and Republicans are hell-bent on gutting healthcare for millions of people. They’d rather close hospitals, slash funding for addiction treatment, and kick families off their coverage than give up another tax break for billionaires.

It’s cruel. It’s reckless. And Democrats have three words for it: No. F***ing. Way.

Add your name now to tell Trump and Republicans: protect our healthcare and end the shutdown.

We’ve seen this movie before. Every time Republicans get the chance, they go after healthcare. They call it reform, but it’s sabotage. Their latest plan rips a trillion dollars out of the system, ends ACA subsidies, and sends premiums through the roof. For millions of families, that’s not a policy debate, it’s a death sentence.

It’s the nurse who can’t afford her own care. The dad at the pharmacy counter deciding what he can skip this month. The patient walking into an ER because their clinic shut down last week.

Trump and the GOP could end this shutdown today. They could protect healthcare instead of torching it. But they won’t unless we make them.

Because this fight isn’t about party lines, it’s about people’s lives. And if we don’t stand up right now, millions will pay the price.

Sign our petition today to tell Congressional Republicans to come to the table, protect healthcare, and end the shutdown.

Sincerely,

Chuck Schumer
