I have not yet needed ACA. I had Medicaid when I was a welfarian, and I now have Medicare and Aetna through my job. It's good to know it's gotten so much better. Ta, Dok.

Joe Biden helping the poor and sick just like Obama before him. If we elect enough Dems in 2024 we could break the damn filibuster and pass the public option. That would be a huge game-changer for our health care system!

Obviously, the GOP should repeal Obamacare, because their constituents hate Obamacare, but not the Affordable Care Act, because their constituents love the Affordable Care Act.

doc (as you know) i've been on the ground with the ACA from the rollout.

there were no LITTLE ACA glitches.

but bless Biden and Pelosi and Obama and (my rep) Jan Schakowsky and all the others who've made such a difference in so many lives.

The income cliffs in Obamacare were definitely one its dumbest features, good riddance!

Of course, the Trump health plan will be like his Covid respirator plan, if you bribe his people, you might get something. Overall, though, people in blue states and Black people will be terminated (literally)

Canvassing precincts is good exercise, which is good for our health, and which is also good for preserving Obama-Pelosicare. Just sayin'...
