For those who listened to the townhall given by the Congresswoman from Wyoming, she told her constituents that they would not be hurt because Wyoming and a few other states didn’t expand Medicaid.
We think the protests are big now. Just wait till news of cutting Medicaid starts really coming out of the GOP caucus. Americans will flood the streets. It is every American's job to fight for the Constitution. https://youtu.be/wj3Pbye__XA
My friend, we're there. HandsOff is now the single largest protest in US history, only surpassed by the first Earth Day in 1970, which happened to also be a global event.
I'm not arguing tho bc the more the better. The protests will continue, and the numbers will grow. No waiting. The time is now.
This is what the Medicaid cuts are all about. They are trying to destroy the affordable care act without saying it. A lot of the ACA subsidies are done with Medicare expansion. This along with the basic we can’t afford to help anyone strategy
76,844,409 people voted for this while 85,864,744 didn't bother to vote.
If you think you don't deserve a government like this, then get your butts in gear, the mid-terms are coming & 85,864,744 folks need to be convinced to vote.
BINGO! Republicans are planning to kill a lot of people they view as needy losers. They did the same thing during Covid. They spread the lie it was a hoax or the flu. They encouraged people to not follow Dr. Fauci’s recommendations. It was an easy way to bump off the elderly/disabled.
12 members of Congress now support impeachment. If yours is not one, or isn’t yelling loud and often enough for you to know, call the Capitol switchboard (202) 224-3121 and ask why not. Or just go to their Congress website and email them every time you feel angry. It’s therapeutic!
They believe the sick are draining the system and unpatriotic. This is their plan. I fear those with preexisting conditions will be placed in the “work the land camps” RFKJr keeps bringing up.
Look at the States that have expanded Medicaid the majority of them are Blue States so they are showing us they don't give a FCK about the MAGA cult followers in Blue States.. This is them thinking they are only going to hurt Dem voters🙄majority of ppl who benefit from Medicaid are their own ppl.
Except that Congressional representatives make nearly $200,000 a year and can afford to purchase their own health insurance unlike people who qualify for Medicaid.
Has anything they have done been evidence against the proposition "They want you/us to die." Remember--every old and/or sick person who dies is less money the government is on the hook for, and lowers the chance rich people's taxes will rise.
Of course it is. Mike I live a biblical life Johnson loves not doing what his bible says about helping, caring for the poor, hungry,elderly, disabled, impoverished, Immigrant, sick and ill, children.
I lost my parents to covid 5 days apart in dec 2020. I lost my sister 4 yrs ago today. I bought our health insurance through the exchange for the 4 years as I took time off but I went back FT 3 mos ago for my insurance cuz I know it's as good as gone. The irony is I work for HUD
Thank you...I really don't know what would have happened if I wouldn't have had access to health care. We all have lost enough and this administration just wants to take away more and more
Project 2025 warned health care on chopping block Repukes have been trying to destroy affordable care act since it was instituted they are in bed with insurance CEOs
Do you think they are weighing up how far they can push the various cuts before those with"nothing to lose" turn on them baying for blood (Jan 6 style)? Honest question as they are greedy bullying cowards at heart.
And these same people have the nerve to call themselves "Christian." On several occasions in his holy scriptures Jesus issuing words of command to heal the sick.
I only have sympathy for the people who didn’t support Trump and the Republican Party. The Republicans have been trying to cut Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act for over a decade. Yet, Republicans who depend on Medicaid or the Affordable Care Act keep voting for Republicans. It’s suicidal.
If this motherfucker is so comfortable risking me and other people in Louisiana, then I'll be just as comfortable with it and hope someone nabs the fucker and he wakes up to, "Hello Mr. Johnson. I'd like to play a game."
So long as our part-time employees in Congress get lifetime taxpayer funded healthcare, NO member of Congress should be allowed to even suggest cutting Medicare/Medicaid/ACA.
& the deaths of many
Too poor
Too tired
Too sick
Too undereducated
Too alone
Too young
Too old
The Republicans who do not care & will not help our vulnerable Americans will be responsible for any & all of these deaths
That is the facts
The South will house these victims
& bury them😢
Protests do not mean they will lose elections. Very few, if any, "red state / district " Republicans are going to lose next November, and they know that.
More trouble for consumers, an illness away from bankruptcy! People on Medicaid are very poor or very old and poor! The White Christian Nationalist Party, aka, Republican Party are cruel and inhumane to our less fortunate. And they keep making more of them everyday!
There are more people on Medicaid in red states than blue states per capita. Republicans will bear the brunt of this. Survival of the fittest will not be kind. They are too stupid to even cast a vote for the party that supports Medicaid/Affordable Care Act. They can’t adapt. They will not survive.
Meanwhile, Trump is spending unfunded millions to send people who have no conviction or sentence to a concentration camp for an undetermined sentence.
AND he is planning to send many more.
No law allowing this or funding this horror has been passed.
We all know that republicans have no alternative plan for Medicaid, so what are the millions of people who rely on it going to do? I can envision a lot of people dying in emergency rooms and hospitals shutting their doors. It’s a disaster.
Oooohhhh. So that’s who so many already lost Medicaid. I lost my Medicaid over a year ago. When we got the last SSA raise. That used to help me with my Medicare copays and deductibles. Losing that was like getting a SSA decrease. Plus my food stamps went from $150 to $23.
The same exact thing happened with my medicaid and my dual Medicare and medicaid plan which has been trying to make me pay for medical expenses that are supposed to be 💯 covered Oh and I get $23.00 a month for food stamps it’s getting ridiculous $23 a month doesn’t even buy eggs and milk
Exactly!!! How are we supposed to live on what they pay us PLUS copays until we meet those deductibles, unless it’s something with co-insurance because then it doesn’t count towards the deductible, housing, utilities, food and our consolidation prize 🏆 of $23? Oh. Transportation and insurance too
Maybe cut the wonderful benefits members of congress enjoy rather than taking health care away from those who can’t financially afford private healthcare.

They won't.
They can't afford it!
I'm not arguing tho bc the more the better. The protests will continue, and the numbers will grow. No waiting. The time is now.

VOTE.
THEM.
OUT!
(Please repost)
The latest senate budget resolution gives $5.3 trillion in deficit-financed tax cuts.
That’s going to cause medical costs and insurance to rise out of control again. It’s ridiculously stupid.
But it gets worse.
They want to take that money and give it to the wealthy and corporations! YUP!
Tell Republicans what they will lose.
We as the Democratic Party should be the good neighbors.
Too poor
Too tired
Too sick
Too undereducated
Too alone
Too young
Too old
The Republicans who do not care & will not help our vulnerable Americans will be responsible for any & all of these deaths

Cut it too!
(Even though we know the answer)
AND he is planning to send many more.
No law allowing this or funding this horror has been passed.
I really hope I live long enough to see the outcome
But only the poor so
Anyway remember what the date was so I can go back and read it to feel like I'm "winning" as a poor disabled American?
I am not worried I am not covered by Obamacare but by The Affordable Care Act
