Proud as always to partner with @floridapolicy & @fwcatimpactmedia to raise the alarm about proposed federal cuts to Medicaid & SNAP. If passed, these cuts will have devastating effects on children, seniors, Floridians with disabilities, and hardworking families. Contact Congress with just one click to say NO to Medicaid cuts at bit.ly/FVHaction. #FightLikeHealth

No CUTS Here Is Why

My Friends Take A Listrn To U.S. Rep Maxwell Frost (D) Fl

Florida is one of just 10 states refusing to expand Medicaid—turning away federal dollars while millions struggle to access the care they need. Meanwhile, Trump and House Republicans say they aren’t touching Medicaid but are pushing budget cuts that threaten it. The math ain’t mathin’.

I joined FL legislators in Tallahassee to fight for every Floridian’s right to affordable, quality healthcare and to demand that lawmakers not only protect Medicaid, but expand it.

Thank You All God Bless

How MANY III

My Friends The #Healthcare Situation In America Needs Help …Too Many Struggling With :

High Co Pays

No Healthcare

Insurances Not Covering Things

Insurances Denying Claims or Treatments

No Access To Care They Can Afford As In 10 States Medicaid Still Has Not Been Expanded …

Caps On Care And Medines

Medical Debt Leading To Bankruptcy

This Is Unacceptable …. It Must Change … We Must Change It …I’m 2018 I Wrote A Poem  HOW MANY in Memory of The 14 Students and 3 Adults  At,Marjory Stoneman Douglass High School In Parkland Florida Lost to Gun Violence .  I Have Since Dedicated It To All Lost To Gun Violence

As A Person Who Advocates For #Healthcare and All Having Access To It …. I Had No Healthcare myself from Age 16 to Age 50.  I Would Have Had it At Age 43 But My State Florida Refused To Expand Medicaid Under The ACA (Affordable Care Act) .  Sadly Today Florida  Still Refuses To Do So Along With 9 Other States Leaving Millions Still #Uninsured.  We Hope This Changes It Must. 

So I Get It After Seeing The Comments on The Murder of Brian Thompson The Former CEO OF United HEALTHCARE.   The Anger Is Justified Too Many Suffer Due to Sick Cynical Greedy CEO’S And Cost Cutting to Make A Profit.  However Supporting Violence Is Not The Answer. It Never Is ..  Take The Anger and Use It To Fight To Fix The Healthcare Problems In The United States … Get involved Protest, Email,  Call , Act … Do Something Please That Is Postive and Not Destructive. …  Use The Anger And Get Involved For Change … Open Your Mouths And Speak Up Speak Out …Together We Can … Together We Shall …. Together We Will …

So Today I Wrote A New Version Of HOW MANY …. This Is For All Fighting To Live and Survive With Our Current #Healthcare System My Statement Included BELOW TOO

Healthcare Healthcare Healthcare  …..  We Advocate For It …..  We Are Sick ….. Sick of Seeing Patients Die From Lack of It … Due To #Medicaid Not Being Expaned In 10 States …. Sick Of Seeing People Go Bankrupt From High Co Pays And Be Denied Life Saving or Necessary Care or Seeing Their Life Savings Be Decimated Due to Mega Corporate Greed and Political Selfishness
We Do Not Support The Violence  …. We Are Angry Too
That Is Why OUR FOUNDER Fred Christian Rewrote HOW MANY Today …. This One Is For All Who
Died Without Healthcare (Charlene Dill)
Go Without It Daily (Medicaid Expsnsion Not Implimented)
Can’t Afford Co Pays
Denied Life Saving Care or Care Due to Corpoorate Greed and Heartless Beuracracy,
This Is For You Today …
Today We Debut HOW MANY … The HEALTHCARE VERSION
FOR ALL Hurting And Suffering With Our Current Healthcare System …This Is For You
Send It Out To All If You Agree With Us #IMPACT

We Ask You Now …. How Many America ?

Thank You All God Bless

A Mothers Fight Against Diabetes

My Friends I Have Good News As of Last Year Our Friend Amy Rodriguez (From The Blog Series Titled : A Mothers Fight to Expand Medicaid) Has Healthcare through the ACA Exchanges …. However There is A Problem many Are Facing In America Theses Days ….

Because Amy Went Over 5 Years without Healthcare …..Her Diabetes Got Worse …. When Insured It was under control …. Now It is Not and Amy Needs Our Help Again …. As She like many working people face High Costs of Diabetic Supplies like Insulin and A Pump to distribute it to her …. Due to Unrealistic and High Costs and Co Pays From Insurance….

Amy Rodriguez From 2015 Advocating For Medicaid Expansion

Many Americans Are Facing This Huge Problem ….. As Diabetes is A Chronic Disease that more are getting … Yes The Congress Passed A Bill That President Biden Signed into Law Capping Insulin Prices …. But Sadly There was A Provision In The Original Bill Capping Insulin Costs For All Americans…..Yet Due to Negotiations and One Political Party Not wanting to help Sick People …. It Only Covers People on Medicare and Medicaid …. Not Private Insurers Self Pay (Uninsured) or ACA Exhanges

This Is An Outrage ….Insulin Is Insanely High …. It’s A Life Saving Drug … All Should Benefit From This At A Fair Affordable Price ….

So I Again Ask Why Hard Working People like Amy Suffer ?? It’s Not A Picnic ….High Rent… High Food Costs … Price of Eggs Anyone ?? Yet A Life Saving Drug and The Devices Distributing it Many Can Not Afford….You Have to Go Into Debt to Live …. This is Unjust and Unfair …. You Shouldn’t Have To Take Out A Loan To Live People !! Yet Many Are ….

An Insulin Pump To Distribute Life Saving Insulin

An Insulin Pump To Distribute Life Saving Insulin
The Diabetic Supplies My Friend Amy Rodriguez Uses Daily …. That Keep Her and Many Alive and Well

I Too am Diabetic and Finally Insured with Medicaid After going 34 yrs without Healthcare ….. I Have to Pay Out of Pocket for a Sensor to Scan For My Sugar As the finger prick method is too complicated for me As A Dyslexic ….And The Sensor Saved My Life when my Sugar got too Low a few times ….. Fortunately I Am Not on Insulin with my Diabetes…. Yet I Too Fear The Debt Many incur who are on Insulin …

Amy Would Have Been Healthier if Medicaid in Florida would have been Expanded … Yet After 10 Years and Several Excuses by Political Forces … It Still Is Not …. If Amy’s Case or Mine Are Not A Case For All To Have Access to Both Affordable Healthcare and Life Saving Medicines …. I Honestly Do Not know What Is ….

Any Help You Can Give Amy Towards Her Diabetic Supplies Is Appreciated…. We Need Change … People Deserve to Live and Medicine and Healthcare Do Just That Keep Them Living ….

I Close This Leaving A Picture Below of My Friend Amy Rodriguez and Her Beautiful 5 yr old Grandaughter Sephira …. Let’s Do Better For Amy and Sephira…. So kids Like her don’t Go Through What Amy Goes Through… I Ask This …. Do You Want Us To Live America ???

Thank You God Bless
