Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin’s (D. WI) re-election campaign:
President Trump and Republicans in Congress seem to want to make life harder for people with pre-existing conditions at every turn.
I wish I were exaggerating.
President Trump and the GOP are trying to revive Trumpcare, which could allow insurance companies to charge people with pre-existing conditions higher prices for their coverage.
We’ve come too far, fought too hard, and had too many close calls to see protections for Americans with pre-existing conditions be gutted. Sign here to protect them.
I will not stand by and watch people who are sick get priced out of the insurance market. I’m passionate about this because I’ve been there. I was denied coverage as a young person. And my grandparents had to sacrifice and make hard choices to make sure I had health insurance. I don’t want anyone to fall into financial distress because of an illness they cannot control — we can and must do better than that. Penalizing a pre-existing condition is running roughshod over the idea of the American dream.
Add your name to protect people with pre-existing conditions and tell Trump and Republicans we’re going to fight hard on this issue.
If you or a family member have dealt with this issue, share your experience with us as well.
Thank you,
Tammy
