You know what’s really scary? Knowing that getting sick can mean drowning in medical bills. Finding out a necessary medication is no longer covered. Having to make the difficult decision between paying for health care, putting food on the table, and keeping the lights on.

The Senate Agriculture Committee passed a Farm Bill proposal with only a one-year delay and higher future costs for states. But temporary relief should not come at the expense of SNAP’s future! Take action: bit.ly/delay-snap-shift

If you still have your mail-in ballot at home, or if it's still on its way to your home, make a plan to return it ASAP! Your ballot must be received by 8 PM on November 3 to count, so it may be too late to return it by mail. Find a list of staffed ballot return locations here.

We’re all feeling the squeeze of the rising cost of living and the affordability crisis! Back in May we spoke with Jessica, who lives in Hazleton and is working a second job to help support her mother’s medical needs – while also working at the family business. (1/2)

Even with insurance, procedure and medication costs are high, and families often have to pick and choose which they can afford to get. It was already hard to access and afford health care, and federal cuts are only making it worse!
