Dem Rep. Crow: My Constituents Fear They Won’t ‘Survive’ Trump Budget Bill

‘I’ve been reading their letters’

EXCERPT:

CROW: “Well, first of all, I don’t want to be seizing any opportunity like this. I just desperately was hoping that this would not be happening, because I have been talking to my constituents. I have been reading their letters, the fear, the anxiety. I mean, there are literally people that I’m talking to that I represent, Pam, who don’t know if they’re going to survive, literally survive this, that can’t pay for their health care bills, that have disabled children, and the coverage for these disabled children, the care that they need to be able to work, to be able to survive, to be able to get basic care is going to go away. This is the most brutal thing I have ever seen in my time in public office. And that’s my focus. And we’re going to talk about it. We’re going to fight it. I’m never going to stop so long as I’m breathing and here doing this work. And, of course, the people will have a chance to weigh in, in less than 18 months on this devastation as well.”
