John,
Majorities of Democrats, Republicans, and independents say Congress should extend enhanced ACA premium tax credits to help millions of Americans afford healthcare.[1] And yet, Republicans continue to keep the government shut down, refusing to negotiate with their Democratic colleagues.
Both Republican and Democratic Senators need to hear from us right now, urging them to pass a government funding bill that protects our healthcare while holding the Trump administration accountable.
Call the Save Healthcare Hotline now:

If you’re calling a Republican Senate office, here is a suggested call script:
I urge the Senator to pass a government funding bill that stops stealing services from working people to hand tax breaks to billionaires. Please tell the Senator to protect the healthcare of their constituents. Do not make it harder for us to pay for healthcare, buy groceries, or pay bills. Vote for a budget that protects our healthcare.
If you’re calling a Democratic Senate office, please thank them for demanding government funding that protects our healthcare:
Please thank the Senator for demanding government funding that protects the healthcare of your constituents. Urge them to continue holding firm until a bipartisan agreement can be reached that puts our community’s economic and healthcare needs first.
The White House is telling Republicans not to negotiate. Meanwhile, Democrats are under immense pressure to hand Trump a blank check for his dangerous agenda. It’s up to us to remind them where the American people stand: 78% of Americans want enhanced Affordable Care Act premium tax credits extended to keep healthcare more affordable.
After you call, rush a donation today to power our activism demanding a budget that protects our healthcare and our communities.
Together, we’re fighting for an economy that puts working people first, not the richest 1%.

[1] The government shutdown fight, explained by two polls
-- David's email --
John,
In the midst of Donald Trump’s GOP government shutdown, Republicans are getting pressure from the White House not to negotiate with Democrats. Meanwhile Democrats are getting pressure to re-open the government without protecting critical healthcare funding and by handing Trump a blank check for his dangerous agenda.
Our Senators need to hear from us right now.
Call the Save Healthcare Hotline to demand Congress negotiate a bipartisan government funding bill that addresses our healthcare crisis and holds the Trump administration accountable:
877-851-2521
If you’re calling a Republican Senate office, please tell them:
I urge the Senator to pass a government funding bill that stops stealing services from working people to reward billionaires. Please tell the Senator to protect the healthcare of their constituents. Do not make it harder for us to pay for healthcare, buy groceries, or pay bills. Vote for funding that protects our healthcare.
If you’re calling a Democratic Senate office, please tell them:
Please thank the Senator for standing up to protect healthcare over billionaires, and for demanding government funding that holds the Trump administration accountable. Please continue to demand a funding bill that protects the healthcare of your constituents.
Democrats need to know that when they fight for a funding bill that puts everyday people before billionaires, we have their backs. Republicans need to know that we reject their attempt to rip healthcare away from millions of Americans to pay for more tax cuts for billionaires.

Thank you for your ongoing activism and support.
