Keep health care OUT of this. PLANNED PARENTHOOD.

ACT NOW: Latest tax bill would rip away health care from 13 million people and raise premiums for millions more. Send a message to your senators now and tell them to oppose any and all attempts to use this tax bill to take away access to care.

Attacks on our health care have no place in any bill, let alone a tax bill — but Mitch McConnell is desperate enough for a political win that he's trying to force them through. They failed to repeal health care because of our fierce opposition. So now, McConnell and his ideologue friends are trying to sneak a provision through in their tax bill that would rip away health care from 13 million people, and raise premiums for millions more. They're rushing to pass this harmful bill in the coming weeks. We need to rise up and stop it now. Send a message to your senators right now demanding they reject this sneaky attempt to undermine the Affordable Care Act — and any provision in this tax bill that would restrict or take away our access to health care. McConnell's latest move sabotages the ACA by repealing one of its central components: the individual mandate, which ensures everyone has health coverage. Thanks to the ACA, nearly 10 million women gained health care coverage and the number of uninsured women was cut almost in half. This latest attack from McConnell threatens to reverse that progress. If this disaster of a tax bill passes, it would cause millions of people's premiums to skyrocket and could destabilize insurance markets, wreaking havoc on health care in this country. But McConnell and his allies don't care — they're just trying to give a tax break to their millionaire friends by taking health care away from families who are working hard to make ends meet.  The situation is dire, but here's the good news: People don't want this — and McConnell knows it. That's why he snuck it in and is trying to pass it quickly, before we can rally and shut it down. Remember how they tried to do the same thing over and over again with the push to "repeal and replace" the Affordable Care Act? And remember how grassroots hellraising — including your activism — stopped them every single time? We need that same strong, rapid response to stop this sneak attack right now. Send a message to your senators and ask them to oppose any attempt to use this tax bill to take away or restrict access to health care. Thanks for stepping up once again for the millions who are counting on us. Sincerely, Cecile Richards, President Planned Parenthood Action Fund P.S. Please, even if you've spoken out a hundred times this year, send a message to your senators again opposing this latest attempt to sabotage our health care.

Dumb and Dumber GOP Tax Edition. PEOPLE'S ACTION.

House votes to make YOU pay for a massive tax cut for wealthy

Trump and the GOP promised to cut cut cut and boy do they mean it. But it's not you or I who will benefit.

Thanks to Paul Ryan and the House GOP, millions of working and middle class families will pay MORE taxes to stuff the pockets of the rich and big corporations. This is a big holiday gift to their donors.

The tax bill is health care repeal in reverse. First, they cut taxes for big corporations and billionaires. Then they slash Medicare by $470 billion, Medicaid and other health programs by $1.3 trillion over the next ten years. They are taking lifesaving medicine from children and the elderly to make more money than they can ever spend.

We’ve stopped them before. We beat them all year and saved health care for tens of millions of people. We can do it again...We must stop them in the Senate.

This could be the largest wealth transfer -- from working people to the ultra wealthy -- in American history. This dwarfs the tax cuts of Reagan and George W. Bush, neither of which led to real economic growth. Instead they stuck us with the bill.

Will you help stop this insanity in the Senate? We’re helping tens of thousands call Congress. We're taking the fight directly to their state and district offices. 

VOTE OUT THOSE WHO BETRAY US... CALIFORNIA CONGRESSIONAL CAND. BRYAN CAFORIO.

Congressman Knight just voted to raise our taxes. Let’s make sure he knows there will be consequences. ...vote Republicans out of the House in 2018. Congressman Knight knew the Republican tax plan would hurt California families. He even told us he had concerns. But when it came time to stand with our community, Knight turned his back on us and gave President Trump and Paul Ryan his vote. Congressman Knight betrayed us. We won’t let him forget. Congressman Knight’s loyalty is to Donald Trump and Paul Ryan, not our community...condemn his vote...voting Republicans out in 2018. Actions have consequences. If our leaders are going to turn their backs on us, let’s be sure and do the same to them at the ballot box next year. Team Caforio

FEATURE ARTICLES. WHY DO POLITICIANS LIE? PT 3.

Now that we have DISCUSSED THE DEFINITION OF "LIE" AND "DECEPTION", Which are Basically NEGATIVE BEHAVIORS OR ACTIONS THAT...

...EITHER DELIBERATELY GIVE FALSE AND INCORRECT INFORMATION, OR WITHHOLD NECESSARY DATA...  

...THAT WOULD GIVE THE CITIZEN OR VOTER MORE FACTUAL INFORMATION TO MAKE  MORE CONSIDERED CHOICES COME ELECTION TIME.

The Question is -  Does it Matter, and If So, HOW MUCH?

Year After Year, Poll After Poll We ARE CONSTANTLY TOLD HOW MUCH THE AVERAGE VOTER OR CITIZEN IS FED UP WITH THE WAY GOVERNMENT;

- CONDUCTS BUSINESS.

-  IS FULL OF IMMORAL AND DISHONEST INDIVIDUALS.

-  PROTECTS THE RICH AND THE UNDESERVING.

-  HAS LOST TRUST WITH THE "COMMON MAN."

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY... MUST BE OVERHAULED 

WITH NEW FACES AND FRESH IDEAS.

Yet if We Examine the Results of Past Elections, the REALITY OF

THE DETERMINATION BY VOTERS TO ALTER THE 

"STATUS QUO" BECOMES CLEAR:  IT IS MAINLY A DESIRE TO SEE

OTHER VOTERS REMOVE THEIR INCUMBENTS FROM ELECTED 

OFFICE, BUT NOT ENOUGH TO DO THE SAME WITH THEIR OWN REPRESENTATIVES.

EVEN WHEN THIS DOES HAPPEN, THE NEWLY ELECTED
OFFICIALRARELY REPRESENTS A CLEAR BREAK WITH THE IDEOLOGY AND OPINIONS OF HIS PREDECESSOR. SOMETIMES IT IS JUST THE SAME OLD PRODUCT, REPACKAGED AND RESOLD IN A DIFFERENT FORM.

SO WHAT DOES THIS TELL US ABOUT THE NECESSITY FOR INCUMBENT OFFICE HOLDERS TO BE TRUTHFUL, AND IF DOING SO PAYS OFF, ( AT LEAST POLITICALLY), OR IS ACTUALLY A LIABILITY TO A LONG CAREER IN POLITICS?
