@KamalaHarris @SenKamalaHarris when my own daughter was born with Downs 29 yrs ago, Downs was considered to be a “pre-existing condition” and she was uninsurable. We owed hundreds of thousands for the diagnostic & medical costs from neonatal ICU alone... and only the start (1/7)

Uninsurable due to pre-existing condition meant that none of her regular well-baby pediatric care could be covered. No vaccines, no antibiotics, no doctor visits, no therapies, no supplies, none of her surgeries were covered.... (2/7)

None of her the subsequent regular annual testing was covered - no echocardiogram, no atlantoaxial c-spine imaging, no ear tubes, the two surgeries for the broken humerus were not covered. (3/7)

Families who have loved ones with disabling conditions will be irreparably harmed should Amy Coney Barrett become a Justice on the Supreme Court and vote to:
1. Overturn the ACA;
2. Harm Social Security or MediCare/Medicaid;
3. Overturn Roe v Wade.
(4/7)

If Downs again becomes a pre-existing condition, so will autism and Aspergers, so will mental health, so will ADHD and ADD, so will all other disabling conditions - they will all become justification for Insurance co’s to deny coverage and/or charge more for coverage. (5/7)

Find out for us:
1. Will she vote to overturn Roe?
2. Will women be able to terminate pregnancy if embryonic anomaly is detected?
3. Will disabled children be protected from insurance “pre-existing condition” exclusions or rate hikes?
(6/7)

4. Will special education be protected?
5. Will social security, Medicaid and Medicare be protected?
We cannot assume that just because her child has Downs, or that she is a Christian, that people will be protected from her ideology. Her hypocrisy on Garland shows us that. 7/7
