Abdul El-Sayed: “We’re gonna build a movement that reaches out to everybody — I know not everybody’s gonna agree with me on everything…”

But I know they agree with me on the need to beat Mike Rogers and the need to hold Donald Trump accountable, and the need to provide people healthcare, and the need to address the affordability crisis.
