On October 15th, the official FEC reports for political campaigns and organizations became public. And from what my team is telling me, there’s a lot of interesting things in there.
Here’s one of the most concerning tidbits though: insurance companies and Big Pharma PACs are working overtime to win favor in Washington DC.
Companies like Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, and Blue Cross Blue Shield are pouring money into Democratic and Republican campaigns alike, because they know that we’re closer than we’ve ever been to getting rid of the for-profit health care system.
That threatens them and it threatens their bottom line. But their corporate donations aren’t going to stop us from fighting for a future where everyone has access to health care.
After years of campaigning, we’re finally on the doorstep of winning a health care system that puts people above profits. We can’t stop now, too many working-class people around the country are depending on us to win this.
