Yooper 💙🩵💪 I want all Americans to have affordable healthcare, a living wage, affordable housing, a vote that counts, food on the table, dignity for work, access to a good education, among other things. If that makes me radical, then I am proudly radical.

🚨 REMINDER: Residents of every state except ID still have until WEDNESDAY NIGHT to enroll for coverage starting Feb. 1st! This may be the last chance you have to take advantage of the improved IRA subsidies, so get 'em while you can! Here's some things to remember: acasignups.net/25/01/01/aca...
