Letter signed by 13 Democratic Senators

[compsports]

What do you all think of this letter signed by 13 Democratic Senators pleading with the Republican Senate Leaders to work on discussing improvements to the ACA? I have a very negative reaction because the Republicans obviously have no interest in improving the ACS based on their years of doing nothing in this area. But maybe I am missing something.

As an FYI, if you live in VA, please note that both Kaine and Warner signed the letter.

1. It could be a way to put the r'Pukes on record

That they will never work together for any reason.

2. My thought, too. n/t

[Jacob Boehme]

3. Papers with pretty words and lots of signatures don't mean shit....

.... to Trump or the GOP.

This is a cage match, and a street fight .... accepting that is the first step to saving our country.

4. some of the same a-hole D's that voted against buying drugs from Canada

BTW, this will doubtless not work bc repukes have proven they don't want to work with Dems for 8 yrs. and now they have a "mandate" not to.

5. A letter?

Great. This is why we are in the dire straights that we're in. The dems have played nice for 35+ years while drifting to the right & now they've been neutered & the GOP has their boot on our neck. But hey, they can still write letters.

6. I know.

But it's better than nothing.

Maybe it's just a start to something bigger.

9. yep - it is doing something in a positive direction

7. The GOP will respond that the Democrats passed the ACA on a purely party line

vote. The GOP has no interest in actually fixing things.

8. Thanks everyone

Thanks everyone for responding. I agree with the points about letters not meaning anything to the GOP and that Democrats have to approach this as a street fight.

Stay tuned.
