Question about project 2025

How will it effect the elderly

Answer

"Project 2025" proposes a very dark vision for the elderly, making it harder for them to access and afford vital benefits and services, particularly impacting those of color or with low incomes. - They would cut Social Security, dismantle Medicare, limit access to prescription drugs and healthcare, and dismantle the Department of Veterans Affairs which would all directly hurt older Americans who depend on these services for a quality of life, health, and retirement. - They will make access to needed medications even more difficult for those needing them, leading to many having to choose between filling prescriptions, paying bills, or feeding themselves. They would also specifically limit access to Medicaid which disproportionately affects older Black people and would leave millions of people at a greater risk of losing affordable care.
