my cats Amy and Sheldon helping with poster making for a small local protest this weekend.

Former Senator Jon Testor says that every hospital in Montana depends on Medicaid & Medicare payments. Nearly every hospital in MT would close. That means that even those with private health insurance WILL HAVE NO PLACE TO GO! This is true in many states with majority rural citizens. Mostly🎈states.
