Someone was saying (rightly, I think) that many Americans may not realize they rely on "Medicaid." In Alaska, it's called DenaliCare. In Colorado, Health First. In Hawaii, Medquest. In Connecticut, HuskyCare, etc. Remind your communities that all of these are Medicaid—and the GOP is gunning for it.

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”
