25. Could be a large impact for my daughter
She's only 7 now, but she has a genetic condition that will be with her for her whole life. I nearly lost my employer-sponsored health insurance a couple of years ago and finally got first-hand experience on efforts to try and get private insurance or get a child into a state health program. It was terrible.

I'm hoping the current bill is only a first step and the more can be done over the coming years, but that will require more progressive Senators pushing against Jim DeMint's collection of conservative hypocrites.
