Lucas --
A Republican state Senator in Tennessee has taken time out of his undoubtedly busy schedule to compare President Obama's Affordable Care Act – and the 25 million Americans who've gained access to health insurance because of it – to the Holocaust:
Blog post by Republican Sen. Stacey Campfield (TN)

Even more shocking than his original post comparing Obamacare to the Holocaust, Campfield told the Knoxville News Sentinel that "he is not making an apology and believes the analogy is appropriate." (!)
Sadly, Campfield isn't alone in his extremism. He and other Tea Party legislators are still blocking access to health care for nearly 5 million Americans who were supposed to get insurance under the Affordable Care Act. Now Campfield is doubling down with outrageous, hateful insults.
This Republican extremism must end: Please add your name right now to denounce Campfield's shameful comments.
Thanks for speaking out,
