States need to Protect Medicare, Medicaid, and Employer Coverage Now
Protect Medicare, Medicaid, and employer-based insurance. Do not cut, cap, or restrict access to any of it. Millions of people depend on these programs to survive, and stripping coverage without a replacement doesn't reform the system — it just kills people who can't afford private care.
The American constitutional framework was not designed to concentrate wealth and power in the hands of a ruling class. Gutting healthcare access to fund tax cuts for the wealthy is exactly that. Yes, the system needs real reform — but that means expanding access and lowering costs, not pulling the floor out from under working families.
Any vote to reduce Medicaid funding, undermine the ACA, or weaken employer coverage mandates is a vote to harm your own constituents. I expect you to block those cuts and fight for comprehensive coverage protections in our state.
Start proactively creating plans and laws to protect our states citizens immediately. Work with other states to create plans and access to personnel. Let the people know that our state is standing up to federal corruption by protecting her rights and healthcare. #HandsOffHealth
