Trump and Republicans proud to support next recession

I’m writing to voice my concern about the blatant disregard for democratic values in the Senate. In a dark corner of Washington DC, 13 Republican men are dismantling the Affordable Care Act and the American Healthcare System. You would think that stripping health care from millions of Americans was enough, but President Trump, Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, and Senators Alexander, Cruz, Cotton, Lee, Gardner, Portman, Toomey, Enzi, Hatch, Cornyn, Thune and Barrasso will also eliminate 1 million healthcare jobs and knowingly plunge the nation into recession.

My apologies if this thought makes you nauseated. Alas, the words of Ben Carson, the retired neurosurgeon in charge of U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) will comfort you. Perhaps, like poverty, the need for health care ... “is to a large extent also a state of mind”. Resist.
