Medicaid is under attack! Millions of people could lose the care they rely on—so we’re fighting back. This week, we’re mobilizing nationwide to demand NO Medicaid cuts. Medicaid covers vital care for kids, veterans, people with disabilities & working families. Tell Congress: #SaveMedicaid!

Constituents of Rep. #YoungKim took their outrage to her office today, calling out her recent vote to cut as much as $880B from #Medicaid. These cuts would rip health care from thousands of kids & seniors who rely on Medi-Cal and raise costs for everyone. #FightForOurHealth

Make America healthy again by withdrawing from the WHO, silencing communications from the NIH, FDA, and CDC, and cutting off research funding and study sessions.
This is a recipe for communicable disease outbreaks, foodborne illnesses, and pandemics. Make it make sense.
