Close to 5% of Americans are going to lose healthcare so that a few guys don’t have to pay taxes. And that’s not counting the reduced services, coverage, and access that will affect so many more, or the downstream effects on our healthcare system that will affect everyone.

From CBO:
• 11.8 million lose coverage due to One Big Beautiful Bill provisions
• 16M fewer w/ coverage in 2034 when incorporating the 4.2M expected coverage loss from expiration of enhanced ACA subsidies
That's a 57% ↑ in # of uninsured compared to June 2024 current policy projection

We just don't have enough infrastructure compared to the amount of people who've moved here.
So I drove 25 minutes to a hospital in the foothills. Lovely place but I had time & was non-emergent.
