An Open Letter

To: Sen. Cantwell, Rep. Gluesenkamp Perez, Sen. Murray

From: A verified voter in Vancouver, WA

June 11

I am your constituent and I want you to know that as you consider the budget for our country going forward I strongly urge you to not cut nutrition assistance, 42 million of us can’t afford to buy food - that includes children. 20 million of us are at risk of losing our Medicaid health insurance with work requirements and elimination of Medicaid expansion and the state taxes on healthcare that help pay for Medicaid. Do not cut Medicaid. Do not cut Medicare. 65 million of us have Medicare for our health insurance and we paid for it every day we worked. If you want to save money implement universal healthcare like H.R. 3069/ S. 1506. That saves $400 billion in wasteful overhead every year according to the Congressional Budget Office. I want you to have some compassion for the poor, low income Americans, and seniors in your district and not vote for these cruel cuts. We elected you to help us not hurt us. I promise you I will watch your actions and votes and I will act accordingly.
