think that when they had to go to healthcare.gov to sign up for health insurance that they weren't signing up for that big thing called "Obamacare"?
The ACA came and millions of Americans signed up for health insurance when they had none before.

Barack Obama helped many people have access to a basic human right.
You get sick, we take care of you.
Being a woman isn't a preexisting condition.
We need to preserve the right of women's choices.

Don't like it? Pay a fine and thousands when you do get sick and need care.

I had a HealthCare.gov plan and enjoyed it. One year ago I had to quit my job at a Starbucks to take a job at a cafe. After that I had the benefit of health insurance. No more ACA for me. It really helped with having coverage after 26.
