Minnesotans are in crisis, being squeezed by rising costs from every direction. Today's health insurance rate increases are another way that the Trump administration and Republicans in Congress are pushing families into crisis.

On a blue background, a heading reads, "This is unsustainable. Today's health insurance rate increases are an ever-increasing spiral of rising costs hitting households in every aspect of their life. The increases will absolutely lead to more Minnesotans making the difficult choice to drop what they cannot afford and attempt to live without health insurance. Majority Leader Erin Murphy." In the bottom right corner of the graphic is a woman in a leather jacket with short brown hair standing in front of a microphone.

On a blue background, a heading reads, "The Trump administration and Republicans in Congress chose this for Americans. They are actively creating a system where fewer Americans have insurance, and those who have it get less coverage for higher costs. They voted for it, and Minnesota Republicans like House Speaker Lisa Demuth and Senate Minority Leader Mark Johnson praise it." At the bottom of the graphic is an image of a woman with medium-length brown hair smiling at the camera, and a man in a grey suit speaking in to a microphone.

On a blue background, a heading reads, "Today, we learned 300,000 seniors Minnesotans are losing their Medicare Advantage plans due to costs. Next year, another 140,000 of us will lose Medicaid, and will be thrown into a private market that is increasingly unaffordable. Majority Leader Erin Murphy."

On a blue background, a heading reads, "A few weeks ago, a leader at one of our major hospital systems observed to me that we are at the tail end of a dying system of paying and providing for healthcare, and need to start building a new one. My colleagues and I are eager to begin that work. For the Minnesotans caught up in this crisis, solutions cannot come soon enough. Majority Leader Erin Murphy."
