John, Mark Kelly here.

I voted no yesterday.

I voted no because I have spent the last month working for solutions with Republicans and this Administration — to try to reopen the government and keep health care costs from spiking for Americans.

I voted no because no family should have to choose between putting food on the table and their health care.

I voted no because Donald Trump proved who he cares about when he spent more time demoing the White House to build a ballroom than negotiating to reopen the government, and literally went to court to block food assistance for hungry families.

Over the last month, Trump has proven he doesn’t care about rising costs, skyrocketing health care, or working families struggling to put food on the table. All he cares about is tax cuts for billionaires and cashing in on the presidency. And honestly, I’m stunned my Republican colleagues don’t seem to care, either.

I haven’t stopped fighting for the families who are going broke or hungry because Trump and the GOP refuse to compromise.

I haven’t stopped, and I will not stop. But I want to know where you’re at on this, so here’s a question:

Are you with me? Do you think we should keep fighting for better, more affordable health care? If you are, I want you to sign your name so I know we’ve got allies in this fight.

SIGN ON

If Trump or any of my Republican colleagues are ready to get serious on solutions, I’m ready to work.

Until then, I’m not giving up.

Thanks for sticking with me,

Mark
