People who refuse to #VoteBlue b/c they're mad about #M4A won't get ANY healthcare bills up for a vote, not even the 3 rx-price bills already passed by the House b/c McConnell blocks them. He's blocking 400+ House bills right NOW. newsweek.com/mitch-mcconnel…

People who refuse to #VoteBlue because they're mad about #M4A will deliver unto us a #conservative Supreme Court for decades to come that would OVERTURN #M4A if it passed & were challenged by #Republicans the way Trump is asking them to do RIGHT NOW w/ the #ACA.

If you agree with the #democrats that healthcare is a human right, then #VoteBlue. If you want to pressure Congress to pass #M4A, #VoteBlue. The #Republican Party is BLOCKING basics like rx drug prices & challenging the #ACA in court.

If you agree with #dems that healthcare is a human right, then chances are high you agree that #BlackLivesMatter, that the #ClimateCrisis is not a hoax, that a president should not demand #CDC to slow the #Covid19 testing down & his CDC director says ok, then #VoteBlue.

If you agree with #dems that healthcare is a human right, then chances are you agree that women should decide what happens to their bodies. #Kavanaugh has already written--in a Supreme Court decision--that he'd overturn #Roe. Trump's replacement for #RBG is prolife. #VoteBlue

If you agree with #dems that healthcare is a human right, chances are you agree that having a president who can keep the country safe & who'll act globally to keep others safe, too, from war & disease & famine, #VoteBlue.

If you agree with #dems that healthcare is a human right, then chances are you don't want google search results for "children in cages" to be photos from the United States of America. #VoteBlue

If you agree with #dems that healthcare is a human right, then you probably care that the Trump administration kidnapped children b/c their parents LEGALLY sought #asylum & didn't fucking bother to keep track of who their parents are. #VoteBlue #VoteBlue

If you agree with #dems that healthcare is a human right, then chances are you don't think there are "very good" white supremacists & anti-Semites. #VoteBlue

If you agree with #dems that healthcare is a human right, you probably also don't want a white nationalist president who has "dozens" of staffers with ties to white nationalism. #VoteBlue americasvoice.org/blog/trump-adm…

If you agree with #dems that healthcare is a human right, you probably want a president & a cabinet that put protecting lives from #hurricanes, #ClimateChange, and #COVID19 ahead of playing #golf, #tweeting, & watching #FoxNews.

If you oppose #MassIncarceration & the #DeathPenalty & sentencing children to death in prison, then #VoteBlue. #Bidenp's proposing the most progressive crim justice reform in history.

🟡 These are my students. Their lives depend on free people to #VoteBlue.

Reporter: Will the president accept election results?

@PressSec: "The President has always said he'll see what happens & make a determination in the aftermath."

🔵 "VoteBlue for what?" Give me a fucking break.
