Senator Harris needs you Health Care stories
Senator Kamala Harris sent me this via email:
Seven-year-old Myka remained in the intensive care unit for two weeks after she was born and has had two open heart surgeries. Before she turned one, Myka and her family had approximately $500,000 in medical costs. Myka’s mom wrote to me, asking us to protect her daughter from any bill that would deny her health coverage. I want her to know that my Democratic colleagues and I won’t give up trying to protect and strengthen our nation’s health care system, no matter what the other side throws
our way.
I need you to share your story about how the Senate
Republicans’ new bill will affect you or someone you care about. We know the
single most effective way to win this fight is to make it personal. So if you’re
comfortable, please take a short moment to tell your story and I will share them
with my colleagues in the Senate.
To everyone out there, please stay engaged in
this fight until the very end. Next week is going to be the most important one
yet and we cannot give up the calls to protect Myka and so many other children
like her.
Thanks for everything you do.
Kamala Harris
U.S. Senator, California
P.S. Memorize this number and make those calls: (202) 224–3121.
