I hope my Democratic colleagues in the Senate see the urgency of this moment and hold the line because we simply cannot allow the American people to suffer.

Too much is at stake. Children could lose access to life-saving medications. Seniors may be forced to skip doctor visits. Cancer patients could be forced to forgo their chemotherapy treatment. This is the real cost of Republican cruelty.

If we don’t seize this moment to counteract their cruelty, premiums will skyrocket 75 percent next year for over 20 million Americans who rely on the Affordable Care Act credits. Over 4 million Americans will lose health coverage.
