SAVE MEDICARE - THE CLOCK IS TICKING - Call or Email Your Senators NOW!

Right after confirming Jeff Sessions as Attorney General - a man previously ruled to be too racist to be a judge - Mitch McConnell moved immediately to invoke cloture on Tom Price's nomination.

As Chair of the House Budget Committee, Tom Price introduced a budget that would have slashed Medicare's budget by $449 billion and Medicaid by $1 trillion.

Price is a right-wing ideologue who has said:
"We will not rest until we make certain that government-run health care is ended."

If Price is confirmed as Secretary of Health and Human Services, a man who wants to destroy Medicare will be in charge of running it.

The final vote on Tom Price is scheduled for TOMORROW MORNING.
We have until then to get through to our Senators.

Call your senators today and tell them that a vote for Tom Price is a vote to destroy Medicare.
