Protect Our Care✓

Protect Our Care and our health care advocates partnered with @nowthisnews for a special #ACAat12 video featuring the one and only @BarackObama. Watch below to witness their surprise:

Former President @BarackObama surprised advocates & beneficiaries of the Affordable Care Act with a call to honor the plan's 12th anniversary — watch the heartwarming conversations here (with @ProtectOurCare)

Representative-Elect Kristina Knickerbocker (D-OH): From first-hand experience, I know how RFK Jr.’s policies have harmed public health, and have also harmed families like mine. We are seeing this public health crisis with measles across this county, and it’s our responsibility as health care officials to stand up against that.

Protect Our Care is proud to endorse health care champion @BobbyScott for Chair of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce! For decades, Bobby Scott has been a champion for lower costs and better care. As Democrats come to Washington with a mandate from voters, we need his leadership to reverse Republican health care cuts and help make affordable health care a right for every American.

RT @GovernorShapiro: Since the fall of Roe v. Wade, women's fundamental freedoms have been under threat — especially as Donald Trump and his allies have pulled out every stop imaginable to try and rip away a woman’s right to choose. I’ve stood up to him every step of the way, and kept abortion safe, legal, and accessible here in Pennsylvania. But in my second term — we’re putting an end to the uncertainty. Under a Democratic trifecta, we will codify abortion rights into our Commonwealth’s Constitution — so no one, not even the President, can come for a woman’s right to choose.

RT @RepJasonCrow: Healthcare costs are just devastating families. Republicans cut healthcare for millions. Come January, Democrats are going to restore tax credits to help lower costs.

Protect Our Care is proud to endorse health care champion @RepRichardNeal for Chair of the House Ways and Means Committee! Richard Neal has been a steadfast champion for Medicaid, affordable coverage, and the care millions of Americans depend on. We need his leadership to reverse Republican health care cuts and make health care more affordable for working families.

Protect Our Care is proud to endorse health care champion @FrankPallone for Chair of the House Energy and Commerce Committee! Frank Pallone has spent decades fighting to protect the ACA, strengthen Medicaid and Medicare, and lower prescription drug costs. He’s the proven leader we need to reverse Trump’s health care attacks, hold Republicans accountable, and fight for affordable health care for all.

Protect Our Care is proud to endorse health care champion @SenSchumer for Senate Majority Leader! Chuck Schumer’s leadership helped Democrats take back the Senate after he fought tirelessly against Trump and Republicans’ cuts to health care. As Democrats come to Washington with a mandate from voters, we need a leader who will fight to undo the damage Trump and Republicans have done and put working families first.

Protect Our Care is proud to endorse health care champion @RepJeffries for Speaker of the House! Hakeem Jeffries has been a fierce fighter for affordable health care and led Democrats’ strategy to keep health care in the spotlight and fight tirelessly against Republican lies, which fueled a blue tsunami. As Democrats come to Washington with a mandate from voters, we need a Speaker who will fight to undo the damage Trump and Republicans have done and put working families first.

Congratulations, Dr. Amish Shah! This health care champion is headed to Congress.

Congratulations to health care champion Mitchell Berman! He will represent WI-01 in Congress.

Congratulations to health care champion Rebecca Cooke!

Senator-Elect Annie Andrews: I want to hold RFK Jr. accountable for the damage that he has done to America’s public health system. He is the reason that Spartanburg County, South Carolina had a measles outbreak just last year. He has done grave damage to trust in the public health system in America and he needs to be held accountable, and I think no one is better prepared to do that than me — a pediatrician with 20 years of experience practicing.

Senator-Elect Dr. Abdul El-Sayed on how he will approach Trump administration nominees: When you nominate someone like RFK Jr, who is anti-science, to run HHS, what you get is a bunch of nasty crap lettuce in the state of Michigan. So my position is: I’m gonna assume I’m not going to support you until proven otherwise.

Whip Clark: Our first bills and acts are going to be about lowering costs — making sure health care is affordable for everyone.

Rep. Subramanyam: Of course [voters] are going to vote against Donald Trump, of course they’re going to vote for Democrats, because we’re going to restore the cuts that happened, we’re going to make sure we extend those [ACA] tax credits, and we’re going to make sure we put forward a plan to make health care affordable for every single American. I want to do that on day one.

Congratulations to health care champion and Representative-Elect Shannon Taylor!

Congratulations to health care champion Marcy Kaptur on another term!

Congratulations to health care champion Sean McCann! He will be representing MI-04 in Congress.

Senator-Elect Dr. Abdul El-Sayed: The first three things we absolutely have to do immediately: (1) end this war — we need a war powers resolution that brings war making capacity back to Congress; (2) ending this tariff regime and this war against Canada; and, (3) stopping the nuclear bomb that’s about to go off in our health care system with these Medicaid cuts.
