View this post on Instagram I’m writing this post about the upcoming midterm elections on November 6th, in which I’ll be voting in the state of Tennessee. In the past I’ve been reluctant to publicly voice my political opinions, but due to several events in my life and in the world in the past two years, I feel very differently about that now. I always have and always will cast my vote based on which candidate will protect and fight for the human rights I believe we all deserve in this country. I believe in the fight for LGBTQ rights, and that any form of discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender is WRONG. I believe that the systemic racism we still see in this country towards people of color is terrifying, sickening and prevalent. I cannot vote for someone who will not be willing to fight for dignity for ALL Americans, no matter their skin color, gender or who they love. Running for Senate in the state of Tennessee is...

Have you called your Senator today? Tell them NO on Trumpcare!
by Gregg Chadwick On June 27th , I posted a criticism of the GOP led Senate's horrific proposed healthcare legislation. Their bill is back with a few revisions and it is just as awful as before. The New York Times reports that, "The revised bill is broadly similar to the earlier measure that Senate leaders hoped to vote on before the Fourth of July recess, though the new version includes some additional provisions meant to entice reluctant Republican senators with varying policy concerns. Like the previous bill , it would end the requirement that most Americans have health coverage, and it would make deep cuts to Medicaid , capping payments to states and rolling back its expansion under the Affordable Care Act. Though some Republican senators expressed concern about how the previous bill would affect Medicaid, Senate leaders stuck with the same approach in the new version." Also, the proposed new bill would allow insurers to offer substandard insurance packages tha...

Primum Non Nocere - First Do No Harm
by Gregg Chadwick As the husband of a cancer survivor I ask those who support Trumpcare- "How can you help pass legislation that you know will kill people? Where is your compassion? Where is your humanity?" Yesterday, the American Medical Association released a letter expressing fierce opposition to the GOP Senate's current proposed healthcare legislation that would repeal the Affordable Care Act passed during President Obama's first term. The AMA writes,"Medicine has long operated under the precept of Primum non nocere , or “first, do no harm.” The draft legislation violates that standard on many levels." Written in a series of secret closed meetings, the GOP cabal's Better Care Reconciliation Act , or more accurately Trumpcare , is worse than imagined. According to the latest Congressional Budget Office estimations the bill will strip millions of Americans of their health insurance - increasing the number of people without health insurance by...
