I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the proposed budget bill that could eliminate Medicaid funding for millions of Americans. As you may know, Senator Cory Booker and Leader Hakeem Jeffries have initiated a sit-in outside the United States Capitol this morning, standing in protest against the devastating impact this bill could have on vulnerable communities. The proposed cuts to Medicaid would undermine the health and well-being of countless individuals who rely on this essential program for healthcare access. Medicaid serves as a lifeline for millions of people, particularly those who are low-income, elderly, disabled, or facing other significant health challenges. For many, it is the only access they have to critical medical care, medications, and treatments. To remove or significantly reduce funding for this program would result in severe consequences, leaving many Americans without access to necessary healthcare, leading to preventable suffering and health crises. As your constituent, I implore you to prioritize the health and safety of all Americans by standing against this budget proposal. We must not allow partisan politics to place the lives of vulnerable people at risk. Please take immediate action to ensure that Medicaid remains fully funded and that this essential service is preserved for those who need it most. I urge you to work across party lines and engage in meaningful discussions to protect Medicaid and explore alternative solutions that do not endanger the health of millions of Americans. The decision you make in the coming days will have a lasting impact on the lives of your constituents, and I ask that you act with compassion and responsibility in your deliberations. Thank you for your time and attention to this urgent matter. I look forward to your response and to seeing you stand in defense of those who need our help the most.
