1 in 5 Americans count on Medicaid for health care. That includes 40% of our children and 60% of nursing home residents. More than 42 million of us, and 1 in 5 kids, can put food on the table thanks to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. These programs are a lifeline that helps regular people meet basic needs. Congress must not sell us out to pay for tax cuts to billionaires. We need you to oppose slashing Medicaid and SNAP. Rep. Boyle is circulating a discharge petition to force a vote on blocking cuts to our health care and food assistance in reconciliation. Please add your signature and encourage your colleagues to do the same. As Rep. Boyle has said, if you truly believe in protecting these essential benefits, this is your chance to prove it.
