H.R. 1: For the People Act 3 of 2021:
https://www.congress.gov/117/bills/hr1/BILLS-117hr1ih.pdf
"To expand Americans’ access to the ballot box,
reduce the influence of big money in politics,
strengthen ethics rules for public servants,
and implement other anti-corruption measures
for the purpose of fortifying our democracy, ... ."

they actually voted to keep politicians from
taking choice from our doctors.

that they help expand our access to healthcare
without tying the hands of doctors.

it was because we didn't give doctors more power:
good doctors wanted to treat early with older
unpatented drugs such as Ivermectin
and zinc with HCQ; and vitamin D;

whereas, the socialized medicine in the usa

told doctors not to treat until hospitalization was needed,
and to use only new patented drugs and ventilators.
