Protect affordable healthcare for seniors and disabled Americans

Republicans must not proceed with plans to cut Medicaid, as it would undermine access to affordable healthcare for millions of older adults and people with disabilities. The proposed budget resolution paves the way for significant funding cuts to vital social safety net programs like Medicaid. Slashing Medicaid's budget would directly impact Medicare beneficiaries who rely on Medicaid to cover costs like premiums, deductibles, and long-term care services not covered by Medicare alone. This would exacerbate already strained healthcare costs and force many vulnerable individuals to forgo necessary medical treatment and care. Preserving the financial integrity of Medicaid is crucial to ensuring the wellbeing of our nation's senior and disabled populations who depend on these interconnected programs for their health and economic security. I urge you to protect Medicaid from harmful cuts and safeguard affordable healthcare access for all.
