When I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2007, I wondered how many more birthdays I would get with my kids or how many more anniversaries I'd celebrate with my husband. But at least I knew that I would have access to quality, reliable health coverage -- and I worried about those who didn't have that same peace of mind.
But, three years ago today, the Affordable Care Act became law and I breathed a sigh of relief. Because I knew that this law would guarantee that millions of Americans like me will never have to worry about being denied coverage because of a pre-existing condition, millions of seniors would have benefits that help pay for life-saving medicine, women would have access to critical preventive care at no cost, and families won't face bankruptcy because of an illness.

Republicans are doing everything they can to undo this progress. They've voted more than 35 times to repeal health care reform. And just this week Michele Bachmann, Mitch McConnell, Ted Cruz, and Paul Ryan vowed to continue the fight to repeal this critical legislation.
It's up to us to stop them. Obamacare may have been passed and upheld, but Democrats across the country must have the necessary resources to fight to protect health care reform and to keep Republicans who want to repeal it out of office.
