Landed in San Jose, California, United States. Apx. flt. time 4 h 33 min.

Senator Murphy lays out exactly what is on the line. "  There was a promise made to finance this tax cut with two trillion dollars of cuts to Medicaid and Medicare. Medicaid, poor kids, poor families, Medicare, seniors in this country." Don't Cut My Medicaid
