An open letter to the U.S. Congress

American Lives Are at Stake; End the Shutdown

2 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

The ACA website is live. Next week, Americans will be able to shop for insurance via the Affordable Care Act and realize that it is no longer affordable. Next week, Americans will lose SNAP. Next week, rent and bills will be due for Americans who have not received a paycheck in two weeks. You are still drawing a paycheck while America starves, risks homelessness, declines vital healthcare. You have a responsibility to act. Come to the table and extend credits that make healthcare accessible to your constituents. End this shutdown so that American citizens don't pay the ultimate price for your stubbornness and lack of empathy. We're waiting.
