I have a friend who is 63 years old. She and her husband both lost Medicaid. Her husband works but cannot afford Obamacare because it cost them $600 a month and that is too much for their income. Her husband has a surgery scheduled that will cost them around $40,000.

My friend is also disabled and diabetic and should be eligible for Mainecare, but the only person who is eligible is their adopted grandchild.

I am calling Sen. Susan Collins to ask her to hold the line until the Trump administration comes up with a better solution for all Americans. I am calling for a universal health care plan to be implemented in this country.
