I was proud to work with Rep. Clyburn to secure ACA community health centers funding.






As a result of Bernie's Community Health Center amendment to the Affordable Care Act:

- 9 million more Americans received primary care
- 2 million more Americans received dental care
- 860,000 more Americans received mental healthcare

That's called getting things done

1. Funny how he finally says that a day after James Clyburn warmly endorsed Joe Biden....

If he worked so close with him over the years why didn't Clyburn endorse him?

9. LOL, Obamacare was passed solely on the backs of DEMOCRATS.

Once again, Sanders supporters just abandon all reality.

Do you really think that Obamacare was pushed over the finish line by REPUBLICANS that Sanders won over?

And who knows? He may eventually be our nominee so insults are not helpful.

8. Harsh is trying to claim credit for something that he has trashed and is currently running against.

The shameful part is trying to name drop Clyburn -- not the first time he has done that this week, mind you -- after Clyburn wholeheartedly endorsed Biden because, in part, of his close work with the man on issues such as these.

4. Joe lectures Bernie on "getting things done" then takes credit for one of Bernie's accomplishments.

Joe is a little forgetful at times. I'm sure it was an innocent oversight.
