  • Everyone deserves what I have. I am no one special. My life is not worth more than the next person’s. I did not work harder than others. I was fortunate.

    Now in the recovery stages of breast cancer, I know that all people deserve the care and treatment I received without going bankrupt or worrying about paying for their care or losing their health insurance because of a pre-existing condition. No parent should have these worries for their children.

    Affordable health care for all is a right. There is no one in our country who should suffer because of lack of health insurance—no one.

  • To the editor:

    How many presidents in the last 50 years have started each and every day with a “usual” morning rant? How many have impulsively broadcast a declaration of lousy and contradictory policy, unfettered by any consultation with either Congress or military leaders?

    Our (highly unpresidential) president and his intractable case of "Twitterrhea" are making our country look like a rudderless, leaderless ship of fools. Members of his own party are calling him crazy.

    When will Congress wake up to the fact that a majority of Americans (and most of the civilized world) share that opinion, and take steps to rescue our democracy before Trump's thoughtless and mean-spirited impulses lead us into catastrophe?

    Note from KBJ: He's not talking to you and other Trump-haters, Callie, so stop reading his tweets. He's talking to (1) the millions of people who voted for him and (2) those who didn't vote for him but have an open mind.
