Today we were going to take a vacation like all of the Republicans in the House decided to do, but instead we are here fighting alongside Democrats to save our health care while also hiding our hands in our faces like a General summoned to Quantico. And we’ve got a great conversation filled with perspective and hope with the author of the “Today’s Edition Newsletter,” Robert Hubbell!
