My plan will save Medicare $345 BILLION. U.S. SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE NANCY PELOSI.

My Democratic colleagues in the House and I knew our plan to lower prescription drug costs would be transformational, and David, the Congressional Budget Office has confirmed as much.

The CBO’s analysis found that our plan will save Medicare $345 billion over the course of 10 years.

Here’s what $345 billion in Medicare savings means:
  • It means reducing the cost of health insurance.
  • It means putting money back into Americans’ pockets.
  • It means giving millions of Americans access to the life-saving drugs they need.
David, Big Pharma has gotten rich at the expense of Americans’ health. Our plan will change that.

It would mean so much to me for you to become a citizen co-sponsor of our drug-pricing plan. Add your name today →

David: This is no doubt a difficult time for our country. We’re working to expose the truth and hold President Trump accountable for his gross corruption and abuse of power, but we haven’t lost sight of our fight For the People. Our plan to lower the cost of drugs is just one component of that fight. And your support means so much. 
Thank you.
Don’t let up,
Nancy

Protecting Washingtonians from predatory real estate deals. WASHINGTON ATT. GEN. BOB FERGUSON.

David -- Can you get much lower than preying on individuals facing foreclosure?

Last week, my office put a real estate company out of business after it tried to illegally scam Washingtonians facing foreclosure.

Kirkland- and Portland-based Real Estate Investment Network, LLC (REIN) tried to rip off foreclosed homeowners out of equity amounting to tens of thousands of dollars in surplus funds after sales. REIN approached 35 consumers as part of their deceptive scheme, and they had unlawful contracts with 16 of these consumers. REIN tried to charge a Buckley farmer $90,000 in unlawful fees.

REIN just entered into a legally binding agreement to dissolve. In addition, the company’s principals will pay up to $85,000 for their conduct.

Under no circumstances should any consumer in Washington be taken advantage of by a company. That’s why I’m fighting as your Attorney General to enforce the Consumer Protection Act and hold powerful interests accountable.

Foreclosure is stressful enough without scammers taking money rightfully owed to homeowners. My office will continue to be a watchdog for these consumers and for every injustice committed against Washingtonians.

Best,
Bob

SIGN ON: Stop President Trump's border wall. MARK HERRING.


Dear David --

Earlier this year, I worked to block President Trump’s illicit redirection of federal funding for his unnecessary border wall. This action was part of a joint lawsuit across 20 states to halt the production of Trump’s anti-immigrant symbol along the southern border, which was never more than a bad faith campaign promise.

Now the president is trying to override Congress and force taxpayers to foot the bill for his border wall. This wall is nothing more than a tangible dog whistle for his base and a stain on the geography and history of our country -- and now we’ve learned that the funds he’s diverting for his wall will come at the expense of supporting military families and their children’s education.


I will continue to fight any further construction or funding of his wall, but I need your support. Your name and your voice can put us over the edge in this battle.


We need to be progressing as a country, not regressing. Walls are both ineffective and archaic. In this day and age, our elected officials should be making this country work for more people, not trying to figure out how to stop its growth.


I’m happy to have you on our side,

Mark
