These budgets are not just fights about numbers.

Two weeks ago, every single House Republican voted to cut Medicaid in this country.
These budgets are not just fights about numbers.
They are fights over our values as a country, Jason.

Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security were promises that we as a people have made to each other about the kind of society we want to live in.
Neighbor to neighbor. Friend to friend. Teacher to student.
That we want to live in a society that is not depraved, not every person for themselves, but all of us standing together.
The strength of our country is not only measured by the height of our best days.
The strength of our nation is in who is there for you, and what happens, on your worst day.
In solidarity,
Alexandria
