Republican Congressman Rob Bresnahan campaigned on banning stock trading by lawmakers, only to make over 600 trades himself. He sold stocks before voting for massive Medicaid cuts, putting his own profit above Pennsylvania hospitals. Is this the kind of politician we want representing us? #Corruption #HealthcareInjustice

          The Americans remind us their limit is much further than that of the French.
