I feel like my message is getting out to the voters: fighting against Donald Trump, fighting for Medicare For All, and against ICE, and that’s what they care about.
The right to decide what is best for your body, health and family should not be dictated by borders.
New allies should know that voters who have not returned their ballots need to see contrast communications in the mailboxes — followed by TV and digital targeted to likely voters 40+.
All of these radicals who are coming to the House, thinking they’re going to be able to pass a very broad bill like Medicare-for-All right away, they’re going to run into a brick wall immediately.
