the situation is fluid

Not enough people are commenting here. Senate dems who voted yes sold us OUT tonight. You all LET US DOWN. Effects of not extending ACA credits will extend FAR BEYOND the 24mil that may directly lose healthcare. Way to go. You will be primaried.

AYE. IF YOUR STATE/COUNTY IS HOLDING ELECTIONS, GO VOTE. DO YOUR RESEARCH AND GO VOTE.

YOUR LOCAL ELECTIONS AFFECT YOU JUST AS MUCH, IF NOT MORE, THAN THE NATIONAL ONES.

WE ALL HAVE A LOT TO SAY, SO MAKE YOUR POINT HEARD AT THE POLLS.

Donald Trump’s Plan to Subvert the Midterms Is Already Under Way Our election system is reaching a breaking point.

This is what I'm expecting as well. Also in Florida. Did you receive this as an email, and did you have to request it? If/when I get my letter, I may also post it. I don't think most understand the ACTUAL, REAL impact this will have. This will hit hard when they see the real dollar amounts.

watch: I personally will lose healthcare if tax credits are not extended.

my premium would go up over 150x the current rate without the tax credit so I'll be forced to drop it.

and that's just me. multiply this by 22 million people. and then go further and consider the even larger impact!

this is some scary shit if you haven't read it, and we just recently ticked up to 48% completion...
