THIS IS IT: Senate Republicans have a plan and the votes to repeal the Affordable Care Act. It's time for every single one of us to take action to stop this disaster.If Congress repeals the Affordable Care Act, 23 million people will lose their insurance. What's more, for everyone else, insurance companies won't have to cover basic services like maternity care, birth control, and surgery anymore, and everything from pregnancy to anxiety will be considered a pre-existing condition. If the Senate passes its bill, Republicans will only need to reconcile the differences with the House's similarly cruel bill before sending it to President Trump's desk.1We need to act FAST to raise the alarm. We know that pressure from constituents is more effective. When presidential elections come every four years and we have friends in swing states, we make sure they're voting the right way. It's no different today: even if your senator has already decided, your friend's senator might not have. That's why we made this graphic, so everyone knows who is still undecided. Can you make a call if you live in one of these states, or SHARE this graphic with your friends?
Thanks for taking action to protect our care.

Hi,
Did you know habits make up about 45% of our daily behavior?
Undoubtedly, habits are the foundation for success. And we often hear about how some of the world’s most successful people stick to their (sometimes quirky) habits to perform at their very best.
Be it Richard Branson, Mark Zuckerberg or Bill Gates...
Wonder what are the important habits of a highly successful coach?
I asked Christina (Creator of Elements and The 5K Project) the same question... And here is what she said.
Love. Ajit

Dear Friend,
The people of Israel need our help now.
The threat of war is looming over this turbulent corner of the world. The enemies of Israel have stockpiled as many as 100,000 rockets and missiles along the northern borders of Israel. Magen David Adom, Israel's Red Cross society, must be prepared.
Now that Hezbollah has been battle-hardened through the conflict in Syria, Israeli military intelligence is concerned that the terrorist group may be planning to launch a major military action against Israel — either from its home base in Lebanon or, possibly, from Syria itself.
With this impending threat of war and increasing terrorism, it's essential that Israel prepare its emergency medical response capabilities before it's too late.
Only God knows what will happen in Israel, but Magen David Adom must be ready for what may happen! Israel must be wise like the ant in Proverbs 6 and use this season of relative calm to prepare, knowing that before long its enemies will arrive to pour out their hatred on the nation.
The time for Israel to prepare is NOW. But since the government of Israel does not fund emergency medical services, Magen David Adom desperately needs our help to prepare before it's too late.
Everything that Israel needs to be ready to face the threat of war — ambulances, medical supplies, trauma equipment, emergency blood, advanced paramedic training — must come from the compassion and generosity of friends like YOU.
Together, we can make a difference!
- If 300 of us gave $350, we could provide a new fully-equipped ambulance to Israel!
- If 3,000 gave $35, we could provide a new fully-equipped ambulance to Israel. If three of us gave $35, we could provide a paramedic with dressings and an immobilization kit ($100).
- If 12 of us gave $35 each, our combined gifts could provide a portable oxygen tank ($400).
- A gift of $100 would provide one unit of blood and save up to three lives.
Your GIFT OF ANY AMOUNT — big or small — will make a big difference to help Israel be prepared to care for the injured during an attack from its enemies. If there is a war, you'll be helping to minimize the loss of lives.
To express our appreciation for your gift of $20 or more, we will send you a personal First-Aid Pouch.
This handy little first-aid kit is ideal for your home or family outings, and contains a variety of bandages in several sizes, antiseptic cleansing wipes, alcohol wipes, and sting-relief wipes. This first-aid kit will be a tremendous help when minor accidents happen. Thank you for giving your best gift to help save lives in Israel.
Shalom,
Pastor Jerry Clark
Interfaith Outreach Director
