To the Editor:
Most should know that enrollment for expanded healthcare coverage starts this week and the far right-wing Republican lawmakers and their pundits are disseminating innuendoes, lies and false data information about the Affordable Care Act (ACA). A recent field poll (not phone calls) reveals that one in four voters knows little or nothing about the new health care law with the information gap being largest for communities of color and immigrants(African-Americans, Latinos, Non-English speakers, uninsured voters).
Pastors and their churches, youth advocacy organizations, AARP members, Fraternities and sororities, feminist organizations, parenthood members, etc., must inform the communities and audiences mentioned above of the key and correct information/data. Encourage the use of social media for quick results when possible (this is one mean where our youth can be most effective). The Ted Cruz Tea party can currently be described as feckless, fiasco and fictitious individual/party who
lacks credibility on this and many other issues.
