Medical debt leaves Americans in serious financial jams. It wrecks lives.
Folks go to the doctor one day for a bandage or some minor injury, and end up leaving with a financial burden the size of a mortgage. It could happen to any one of us.
Let me be very clear. No arcane Senate procedure should block people’s right to have their voices heard… and when we’re back in power, we’ve got to pass voting rights. No more handwringing. No more delay.
There’s a deep kind of despair that sets in, and sometimes cynicism like gangrene and the body politic, and I think that that sets the context for somebody like Donald Trump to emerge, not once but twice.
