Received this e-mail from U.S. Senator Patty Murray (D. WA) in support of these Senate Democratic candidates:
52 Republican Senators turned their backs on millions of patients across the country and sided with President Trump and his harmful rule that jeopardizes health coverage for people living with pre-existing conditions.
Unfortunately, we’ve seen this before. Again and again, the Senate GOP has proven that we can’t count on them to stand up and defend protections for patients with pre-existing conditions.
In Arizona, former astronaut, retired Navy captain, and gun reform advocate Mark Kelly is running for Senate to defeat Republican Martha McSally and turn this sunbelt state blue.
John Hickenlooper, the former governor of Colorado, is running to unseat Republican Cory Gardner in what will surely be one of the most tightly-contested races in the country.
In Iowa,TheresaGreenfieldis mounting a serious campaign against Republican Joni Ernst.
And in Kansas, Barbara Bollier is already seeing incredible momentum in her race to replace Republican Pat Roberts and help Democrats take back the Senate in 2020.
The only way to truly end the attacks on protections for people with pre-existing conditions is for Democrats to take back the Senate next year.
