My daughter died three weeks ago, but I was able to keep her home and take care of her for 23 years because of Medicaid programs. I save Medicaid all kinds of money by transporting her to appointments, taking care of her at home to prevent multiple hospitalizations, and acted as her hospice nurse.

Medicaid work requirements don't increase paid employment. They push workers off Medicaid via paperwork.
92% of adults on Medicaid have paid jobs, do unpaid caregiving work, or aren't working b/c of illness, disability, or school. (To KFF: "Not working b/c of caregiving responsibilities" is work!)

CONGRESS:
DON'T PLAY POLITICS

STOP THE CUTS TO MEDICAID!
The GOP wants to cut $2.3 trillion from Medicaid & give that money to the wealthy.

There are proposals from Republicans to cut $2.3 trillion from Medicaid.
THIS is what it would do: It would destroy Medicaid. It wouldn't fight inflation. It wouldn't bring anybody's prices down. It would just steal people's health care
