Hi friend - Gary has always fought for affordable health care, but right now, Trump and his administration are actively supporting a lawsuit that could end the Affordable Care Act for good.
We're over 90% of the way to our petition goal, but time's running out: Please, will you sign our petition demanding Congress protect affordable health care? Here's the best link:

Friend,
More than 20 million Americans gained health insurance when the Affordable Care Act was signed into law nearly a decade ago. But for the first time since the law's passage, new government figures show that the number of uninsured Americans is on the rise.
In fact, compared to 2017, there were two million more Americans who lacked health insurance in 2018 - and while it's an outrage, it's not exactly shocking. Donald Trump is actively supporting a lawsuit that could end the ACA for good. The Trump administration has encouraged states to make it more difficult for people to prove they're eligible for Medicaid.
Millions of Americans and Michiganders benefit from the ACA - whether it's through the health insurance they get or by being protected from discrimination based on a preexisting condition. That's why I'm fighting any and all Republican attempts to weaken or dismantle the law.
I'm looking for 10,000 folks to sign on to make your voice heard: Please sign this petition to demand Congress protect affordable health care. The number of insured in this country should be going up, not down. If you agree, sign your name now.

In the decade that the ACA's been law, millions more Americans have been able to afford routine doctor's visits. The fact that we see that trend reversing under President Trump is deeply disturbing. It's immoral, even. We can't let that trend continue.
I was proud to vote for health care reform during my time in the House, and I'll fight with everything I have to defend the ACA in the Senate. But the buck doesn't stop with me. The GOP is attacking affordable health care from every angle - in the courts, in Congress and through the power of the presidency.
That's where you come in, friend. Please add your name now to demand Congress protect affordable health care.
