    Today, all 11 Dems in the House sent Governor Rauner a letter asking him, yet again, to get engaged and work with us on lowering health care costs and expanding access to people across Illinois. #Twillpic.twitter.com/DnuGbXeiLu

        While the Trump Administration and the Republican Congress have continued their efforts to undermine the #ACA and are busy pushing policies that would reduce enrollment and raise premiums and out-of-pocket costs for middle-class families, we're providing solutions.

        In our letter, we list six potential options to lower health care costs for #Illinois residents and make clear that states can and must step up to ensure families are protected from crushing health care costs brought on by the inaction of President Trump and the GOP Congress.

        In case you haven't noticed Illinois is 130B in debt. It has had four straight years of declining population. Half the HS grads in Illinois leave the state to go to college a good percent never to return.

        The Spina Bifida Association is going to Washington DC in May for a Spina Bifida Advocacy Event to address Congress about issues that affect people who were born with Spina Bifida. I will be in attendance as well. I am looking forward to having our voices heard .

        Why is this so difficult? The amount of care needed is the same. Everyone ends up paying for others care either way. Wishing you shouldn’t have to pay for an unemployed person’s cancer treatment is not going to change its necessity.
