Gloria Farina's family was relieved when she qualified for Medicaid in 2023 after a long application process. The support allows Gloria, 91, to remain at her assisted-living facility.

Now the family worries that proposed Medicaid cuts could force her out of the place she has called home since 2017.

If you’re protesting this weekend, know your rights.
Black graphic with text “You don't need a permit to protest in response to breaking news and you don't need a permit to march in the streets or along sidewalks, as long as you're not obstructing traffic or access to buildings. When you are lawfully present in any public space, you have the right to photograph anything in plain view, including federal buildings and the police.If you believe your rights have been violated, when you can, write down everything you remember, get contact information for witnesses, and take photographs of any injuries.If you get stopped by the police, ask if you're free to go. If they say yes, calmly walk away.If you get arrested, you have a right to ask why. Otherwise, say you wish to remain silent and ask for a lawyer immediately. Don't sign, say or agree to anything without a lawyer present.If you get stopped by a member of the military or any law enforcement office at a protest, you have the right to remain silent or to tell them that you’ll only answer questions in the presence of an attorney — no matter your citizenship or immigration status.”

Our bodies are not designed to handle this amount of overwhelm and anxiety. Breathe. Put your hand on your heart and feet flat on the floor. Roll back your shoulders, straighten your back. Breath in for 4, hold for 4 and exhale for 4. Repeat as needed.
