This is the text of a letter I just sent to the Everett Herald, my local newspaper. The Herald published this letter.

I have written many letters to the Herald, which has published some of them; but I have never written one this personal. I have a severely disabled twin brother. He lives in a care facility, as indeed he must if he is to survive. He is on Medicaid, and he has been for many years. He would be homeless without Medicaid. Neither I nor anyone else in his family could pay the enormous cost of his care. If homeless he would die in short order. Donald Trump wants to gut Medicaid. Donald Trump is doing a great many destructive things, but this one hits way too close to home. With this one, Trump has me scared. He has me nearly panicked. I know that millions of other Americans are in the same place I am with regard to Medicaid. Please. Everyone. Do whatever you can to stop Trump from gutting Medicaid. His doing so will bring immense suffering on an enormous scale.
Rev. Dr. Thomas C. Sorenson
