With @POTUS’s signature, the #FUTUREAct is now law—giving #HBCUs and the 20 million students who fill out the #FAFSA each year a very good Christmas present. https://t.co/avYC2sBsh3 — PolitiTweet.org

As for the rest of Obamacare, I am not aware of a single senator who said they were voting to repeal Obamacare when they voted to eliminate the individual mandate penalty. — PolitiTweet.org

Congress eliminated the individual mandate penalty, and the court has finished the job by ruling the individual mandate itself is unconstitutional in the Texas v. Azar court case. — PolitiTweet.org

The only people who don’t want this fixed are the people who benefit from these excessive fees, including the private equity groups which control three of the largest companies that handle billing and staffing for emergency rooms. — PolitiTweet.org

“If the payment rates for these four specialties were reduced to 164% of Medicare, total physician spending among privately insured patients would be reduced by 13.4%, or $40 billion a year for people with employer coverage, the study found.” — PolitiTweet.org

With over 12 million visitors to the Smokies in one year, you can imagine the wear and tear on the campgrounds, trails, and roads—adding to the nearly $12 billion deferred maintenance backlog in our national parks. — PolitiTweet.org

The Foothills Parkway is one of the prettiest drives in America. So, it’s no surprise that @GreatSmokyNPS is crediting the drive for breaking the park’s record for the number of visitors. Read the full breakdown in the @DailyTimes: https://t.co/Q9plKkNWqE — PolitiTweet.org

This is an important bill for our country and for Tennessee. Funding these priorities is not the cause of the runaway federal debt. These priorities are funded in the portion of the budget that only increases at about the rate of inflation. — PolitiTweet.org
