Today, the House returns to office after their May recess. Let’s flood their inboxes with messages to let them know we’re not done fighting to #ProtectMedicaid. The fight isn’t over yet! 📩 TAKE ACTION: go.caringacross.org/a/housereces...

“Without my personal caregiver…it would grossly impact my life. I would end up in a state, county-run facility…I wouldn’t be able to thrive. I wouldn’t be able to have the life that I so honestly and richly deserve — that I earned.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

#BREAKING: This morning, the House passed massive cuts of nearly $800 billion to Medicaid and $500 billion to Medicare that will result in at least 14 million people losing health care coverage.

Right now, alongside our partners @seiuca.bsky.social @udw.org we are in Rep. Young Kim's district in California saying NO CUTS TO MEDI-CAL. Over 13 million people across the state depend on Medi-Cal for health care, and we won't stay silent! #ProtectMedicaid

🚨Last night, House leadership released budget reconciliation text that aims to cut Medicaid by at least $715 billion, putting essential care for millions at risk, just to fund tax breaks for the wealthy. 📞 Call your Congress Members and say #ProtectMedicaid! go.caringacross.org/a/call-congr...

Medicaid saves lives, and we will not stand by as Trump and Republicans work to cut this program and take away health care from millions of Americans, just so they can give a tax cut to billionaires. Proud to rally with @caringacross.org to protect Medicaid.

I’m still reeling from the #ProtectMedicaid 24 hour Storytelling vigil. The power, the tears, the love—all will carry is through the remaining fight. And I truly believe WE WILL WIN! Thank you to the amazing team at Caring Across Generations and all our partners!

Remember, cuts to Medicaid will not hurt all people equally - kids and people of color will be more likely to lose care. We must protect Medicaid! www.epi.org/blog/medicai...

Republicans want to cut Medicaid by $880 billion. It’s cruel. It’s evil. It’s against our mandate as public servants. I spoke at the @CaringAcross.org 24-hour vigil today with a clear message: I will not let Republicans take away your healthcare. Medicaid saves lives. Period.

Drastic cuts to Medicaid, SNAP, & other essential programs would hit our most vulnerable neighbors the hardest. That’s why I joined @caringacross.org at their 24-hour Medicaid vigil to fight for those who need us to be their voice here in Washington.

We’re 8 hours in, the sun has set, and we’re still here and ready for more. 🕯️ #ProtectMedicaid. Now. Always. See you in the livestream. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBo0...

Care is taxing, in every sense in the world. But it’s even more so when our tax dollars flow to billionaire tax breaks instead of to the care systems we all need. On #TaxDay2025, we're saying NO to cuts to programs like Medicaid and fighting for #FamiliesOverBillionaires.
