An Open Letter
To: Sen. McConnell
From: A verified voter in Louisville, KY
August 11
When I had my twins, I had to go back to work 2 days after they were born because I didn’t have paid medical leave and I couldn’t afford to take more time off because we’d also lose our healthcare insurance. And now you’ve taken more than 6 weeks off and won’t even give us a true health update. Not to mention your leave is paid for, your bills are paid, and you’re not worried about medical care. I wish you would have spent all of your years in the senate fighting for Kentuckians to have the same benefits you have. It’s a pretty nice thing to not have to worry about when you’re not well.
