    As a doctor, I took an oath to do good and do no harm. President Trump’s relentless push to gut the Affordable Care Act is wrong – it means fewer people with insurance and higher costs. Let’s fix what isn’t working and make it better:

    Great to stop by Consumnes Fire Station 71 today! First responders like Officer Schamber protect our communities everyday. That’s why I introduced the HERO Act to help study and respond to mental health challenges among first responders.

    We have a choice. Instead of gutting the Affordable Care Act and supporting a huge tax giveaway to billionaires, we should work together to help everyone get ahead. We need an economy where everyone can succeed.

    So many Americans rely on the Affordable Care Act’s protections. We cannot take these benefits away. It’s time Congress stop the games and put patients before politics. [End]
