An Open Letter

To: Sen. Hawley, Rep. Cleaver, Sen. Schmitt

From: A constituent in Independence, MO

February 20, 2025

The proposed Senate Republican healthcare plan jeopardizes the wellbeing of millions of vulnerable Americans who rely on Medicaid for essential medical services. Imposing strict work requirements disregards the reality that many beneficiaries, such as the disabled and children, cannot reasonably meet such conditions. Cutting Medicaid funding to finance tax breaks for the wealthy corporations and individuals is an unconscionable choice that values profits over human lives. As an elected representative, your duty is to safeguard the welfare of all constituents, especially the most vulnerable. I implore you to reject this misguided legislation and instead prioritize protecting and strengthening the Medicaid program that serves as a vital lifeline for so many.
