It’s hard to stay focused with so much going on, but we can’t lose our focus now. We can’t stop fighting to #ProtectOurCare. 1/7

The Trump Administration is refusing to defend the #ACA in court, meaning that more than 130 million Americans with pre-existing conditions could lose their health care. Here are some of the stories that constituents have sent me over the years: 2/7

Erin is a type 1 diabetic. For years, she had been denied coverage because of this pre-existing condition. Thanks to the #ACA today no one can refuse to insure her and companies can no longer charge her higher premiums for her other “pre-existing condition” -- being a woman. 3/7

Taylor is HIV positive. He wrote me the last time the GOP tried to repeal the #ACA to tell me about the rough road he faced until he was able to receive care at @howardbrownhc thanks to the Affordable Care Act. We can’t leave Taylor out in the cold. We must #ProtectOurCare 4/7
