In reply to the discussion: House Democrat offers to hold town halls for Republicans [View all]Tom Rinaldo
(22,918 posts)An email I got last night:
"65,000 NY19 constituents stand to lose their healthcare, 300,000 more with pre-existing conditions will be at risk of either paying skyrocketing premiums or lose their coverage, our seniors will face an age tax, Planned Parenthood will be defunded and women's health issues will be treated as excuses to jack up insurance costs.
John Faso's vote to repeal the ACA was morally bankrupt. He owes us answers.
We're inviting NY19 constituents to a Healthcare Town Hall in Kingston this Monday night from 6.30-9pm at the Senate Garage: 4 N Front St. We extended an invitation to John Faso as well, he hasn't responded.
But Sean Patrick Maloney has.
Congressman Maloney will come to our town hall Monday whether or not Faso decides to uphold his pledge to be a part of open, public town halls (a pledge, much like his promise to protect healthcare, he has not upheld.)
Sign up for our Town Hall here. And please sign up on Facebook.
Before our Healthcare Town Hall make sure to sign up for our Spring Canvass - talking to voters and registering new voters in NY19 became that much more important following Faso's unconscionable vote to repeal the ACA."
The group that is sponsoring this is NY19 Votes. A lot of us will be out canvassing with them this Sunday throughout parts of the NY 19th CD. From one to 6:00PM. You don't need to live in the district to participate, and some training is provided:
