John,
The health insurance and pharmaceutical industries are spending big money trying to kill Bernie’s budget because it’s partly paid for by allowing the government to negotiate lower drug prices.
As an organizer with Our Revolution, I’m taking the fight directly to corporate Democrats like Josh Gottheimer — if Gottheimer gets his way and kills Bernie’s budget, the pharmaceutical lobby will be happy and Democrats will likely lose control of Congress to fascist Republicans.
John, we’re on the frontlines of holding corporate Democrats accountable for standing against Bernie’s popular budget. Can I count on you to rush a donation now to support Our Revolution’s work to get Bernie’s bill over the finish line?

Becoming a mother opened my eyes to the cruelty of our healthcare non-system. Shortly after my child was born, I was diagnosed with postpartum depression. But I wasn’t able to focus on getting better. The co-pays for my therapy put serious financial stress on my young family.
Then, because of my family history of breast cancer, my doctor told me to get an MRI. My insurance would only cover part of the cost — and that was AFTER I paid a $3,000 deductible. And yet, this same for-profit insurance company can afford to pay its CEO tens of millions of dollars each year.
The outrageous truth is that my healthcare struggle is far from unique. Everyone knows someone with a healthcare horror story. So many Americans are risking their lives by rationing insulin or not filling needed prescriptions altogether. That’s why we can’t allow the drug industry to block Bernie’s bill and keep prices high. Lives are at stake.
Telling personal stories and doing direct action events are crucial to holding politicians accountable — and we are seeing the results. Now it’s on us to finish the job and help Bernie’s bill overcome corporate Democrat opposition.
I'm reaching out to ask you to help Our Revolution take the fight directly to corporate Democrats. Please pitch in what you can here!
In solidarity,
Anna-Marta Organizing Coordinator Our Revolution
