John: Coverage for 54 million people with pre-existing conditions -- including 1.7 million North Carolinians -- now hangs in the balance after a court ruled the Affordable Care Act’s individual mandate unconstitutional.

Make no mistake: this is exactly what the GOP had hoped for -- and Thom Tillis helped make this partisan stunt possible in the first place because he has no shame when it comes to taking health care away from millions.

In fact, Tillis has made a career out of it. He blocked Medicaid expansion in our state as Speaker of the North Carolina House. He repeatedly voted to gut the ACA and rip health care away from millions, including those with pre-existing conditions. And he supported the GOP tax law, laying the foundation for this dangerous lawsuit.

Now more than ever, North Carolinians deserve new leadership in the Senate to bring down health care costs and expand access. Cal Cunningham is committed to doing just that for the people of our state and our country. But if Cal is going to repeal and replace Tillis, he’s going to need your help.

Donate $10 (or more!) before our most important FEC deadline of the year to make sure we have the resources to flip North Carolina’s Senate seat >>

While Tillis has built a career attacking North Carolinians’ health care and playing politics with people’s lives, Cal is committed to protecting and improving our health care system, and guaranteeing protections for all those with pre-existing conditions.

Let’s get him to the U.S. Senate.
