600% increase in health insurance premiums
To: Sen. Gallego, Sen. Kelly
From: A constituent in Tucson, AZ
November 10
Today I learned that my insurance premiums next year will increase from approximately $60 a month to over $360 a month. That’s an increase of 600%. I’m a 60 year old widow. My income consists of Social Security and a small pension. I thought Democrats were actually going to fight for ACA subsidies, but now it looks like I’m wrong. Maybe you’ll get to vote on this issue in December, but I wouldn’t bet money on it. I cannot convey to you the depths of my rage. I’m going to do everything I can to make sure that current Democratic leaders lose their jobs. PS - I’ve voted in nearly every election I could since 1983 and 99% of the time, I voted for Democrats. I have never voted for a Republican. You are betraying your base, once again.
