Privatizing the VA means putting our veterans' healthcare in the hands of corporations that prioritize profits over people. We can't let this happen!
They'll start with the VA, then move on to Medicare & Medicaid.

FYI the National Council of Nonprofits is collecting stories via this form about how the executive orders are harming nonprofit organizations nationwide. If you just got screwed today, tell them about it here. They're also asking who is comfortable sharing their stories with reporters.

The White House has to "check back" about whether or not they just shut off the program that funds health care for 2 million Arizonans?
I can tell you the answer: Arizona's Medicaid payment portal has been turned off.
This is absurd.
