We deserve better

Mon., Sept. 3, 2018

I have watched with interest the ads touting Cathy McMorris Rodgers helping several constituents gain access to needed medical care. It is laudable. But I find it somewhat ironic that, at the same time she was seemingly helping these persons, contrary to her promises to the rest of us, she voted to repeal the Affordable Care Act, without a replacement, thereby placing at risk the health care coverage of tens of thousands Washington residents.

After 14 years of this sycophantic career politician, don’t we deserve something better than a person who does little more than pose for pictures with those who seemingly direct her votes?
