Medicaid is a lifeline for 80 million Americans, including children, seniors, and people with disabilities. It provides critical health care and access to housing, helping individuals remain stably housed and live healthier lives. As Congress negotiates budget reconciliation, up to $2.3 trillion in Medicaid funding is at risk! Low-income individuals and families will be hardest hit by cuts to Medicaid, jeopardizing their health, well-being, and housing stability. The loss of Medicaid could drive more individuals into homelessness or keep them there significantly longer as their medical costs become unmanageable.
We need your help to protect Medicaid and ensure that these critical services remain available. Please join us by contacting your members of Congress and urging them to oppose any cuts to Medicaid funding.
