When the Covid emergency officially ends this week, 15 million people will be thrown off Medicaid and 30 million will lose SNAP benefits. I'm willing to bet that most of the people making excuses for all those "qualified" people who decided to end the emergency 1) have decent healthcare, 2) are not hungry, and 3) have never had a hunger child. nytimes.com/2023/02/28/us/po…

If elected and given majorities, how would you fight to get through bold policies? We already saw how a few senators tanked BBB, which wasn’t nearly enough and still was massively gutted.

The emergency had nothing to do with poverty and shoehorning from the actual facts into your political fodder doesn’t help either issue.

All these programs are nonsense. It's time for universal healthcare instead of uniform ripoff healthcare.

Not to mention further abandoning those of us who are immunocompromised/disabled/vulnerable. According to the CDC, we are supposed to stay locked inside because "they can't pass a mask mandate". I can't speak for others, but I feel completely betrayed.
President Trump still has no plan to address COVID-19. He quit on you, on your family, on America. He just wants us to grow numb to the horrors of the death toll and the pain. We cannot afford another four years of his failed leadership.

I have always advocated helping people in need. But, it seems that most people need to go to work. A job will help curb hunger and will help to get healthcare insurance. I am not talking about everyone but lazy people. Heavy blow back will tell who is lazy.

I AGREE!!!! Covid is still harming and there are variants surging in other countries. We need a much more comprehensive, TRUTHFUL and SCIENTIFIC Covid approach! Pretending it’s not decimating humans isn’t smart.

I care for my adult son who has schizophrenia. My private insurance will not pay for his LAI anti-psychotic medication, and Medicaid has been the saving grace until he gets thrown off next month. I don't know what his future will be without the only meds that have worked for him
