Take Action For Medicaid!

This week is critical for preserving and protecting the Medicaid program as we know it! The Better Care Reconciliation Act, the Senate’s Obamacare repeal and replace plan, strips Medicaid of much needed funding to provide care for our most vulnerable communities, and decimates an essential lifeline for millions across the country. The plan would lead to loss of critical home and community based services, more uninsured, which would compound current problems related to lack of coverage, and increased health care costs in an overburdened system. The Senate will vote on the bill this Thursday. Help ensure this bill does not make it to the floor for a vote!

This bill will slash Medicaid funding (which includes the Virginia waivers) by over $834 billion and cause 22 million people to be uninsured. The plan would lead to loss of critical home and community based services, more uninsured, which would compound current problems related to lack of coverage, and increased health care costs in an overburdened system.

Please call or email your Senator, and ask your friends and families in critical states to do so as well!
