6. This "glitch" only exists because of the GOP positions on the ACA

Don't turn in your Liberal card yet! What we need is more "Liberal", not less.

I'm expecting that it will be addressed through various proposed bills in Congress and we have to fight the GOP to get them passed.

If there are no Liberals fighting for this, it won't get addressed.

I'm so sorry that this has affected your family so badly and I'm going to keep fighting to get these issues addressed for you and all the others who are hurt by them.
