Thank you for asking her what a day in the life is like! I was surprised (and glad) to hear that they don't get a special health care plan, but have to have Obamacare too. That gives me hope that they might get rid of it eventually. I also really appreciated her outlining her opposition to the Equality Act. She made so many good points I hadn't thought of before!
