    In case you were looking for a reminder about what Senator McConnell and Republicans said this week about health care:

    Sen. McConnell on health care this week: 1: Republicans want to cut Medicare, Medicaid, & Social Security to pay for tax cuts for corporations. 2: Rs will try again to repeal our health care law. 3: He supports the lawsuit that could get rid of pre-existing condition protections.

    Democrats are focused like a laser on health care and will not be diverted.

    Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, and Republicans in Washington are making a mess of our health care system, causing premiums to increase and care to decrease while threatening to gut protections for pre-existing conditions.

    The president is desperate to change the subject from health care to immigration because he knows that health care is the number one issue Americans care about.

    If the Democrats would stop being obstructionists and come together, we could write up and agree to new immigration laws in less than one hour. Look at the needless pain and suffering that they are causing. Look at the horrors taking place on the Border. Chuck & Nancy, call me!

    Republicans want to pull from Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid to pay for their tax giveaway to corporations and the wealthiest few. This morning, I’m headed to bright and early to talk about it. Tune in at 7am ET.

    What he said is vile, and those that laughed and applauded should be ashamed.

    You should speak to every Senate Republican who backed Graham-Cassidy. Because “the bottom line is these protections are much more at risk under this bill than they are now."
