Hoy vivimos otra tragedia causada por un tiroteo en una escuela. Nuestros niños deberían preocuparse por sus exámenes de matemáticas o sus partidos de fútbol, no por sobrevivir en sus salones de clase.

Medicaid is a lifeline for our communities. If you have it or not, if it gets cut, the domino effect will touch all of us. #protectmedicaid #myvotemyhealth

"[Medicaid] is not just health insurance. It’s a lifeline": Doctors highlight the disproportionate impact on communities of color and the medical pros who care for them.

Medicaid cuts may disproportionately affect Black, Latino doctors and their patients • Stateline
Experts say potential cuts to Medicaid would strap health care centers that rely on already-low reimbursements, disproportionately affecting communities of color and the physicians they rely on.

Medicaid covers more than 1 in 3 children in the U.S.
That’s over 35 million kids who get the care they need—from vaccines to mental health support.

Without Medicaid, many families would lose access to:
• Pediatric checkups
• Dental care
• Vision screenings
• Emergency services

We all can agree that the healthcare system needs innovation. There has been investments to create a space and learn on services that can have a greater impact in our patients like medical tailored food. Now this is in jeopardy calmatters.org/health/2025/... #medicaid

En los próximos meses vamos a escuchar mucho ruido sobre el autismo.
Aclaremos algo:

El Trastorno del Espectro Autista NO es una enfermedad.
No tiene una sola causa.
Y sí, hoy se diagnostica más porque hemos aprendido a entenderlo mejor.

⚠️ El Congreso debate recortes en Medicaid, lo que significaría:
🚨 Millones de ninos que pudieran ser afectados
🚨 Menos acceso a salud mental y terapias
🚨 Menos médicos y más esperas
👶🏽 Niños y familias de bajos recursos serían los más afectados.

I have worked and trained in areas with no vaccine access. I have seen the complications and suffering.

NO CHILD should suffer due to PREVENTABLE diseases

Medicaid is the safety net for more than 80 million people… also cutting SNAP will not help to have a healthier community… Do we need innovation and change, 💯 %, but, this is not the way to do it

Translate 🚨 Urgent Action Needed! 🚨

Congress is considering cutting Medicaid, which could affect our health, crowd ERs, and even force rural hospitals to close. Medicaid provides coverage for 80 million people, and it’s vital for both patients and healthcare providers.
