According to Republican leadership God supports cuts to Medicaid.

For those of us who aren’t blinded by greed and hatred, keep calling your Republican reps and telling them no way. @5calls.org has the script.

URGENT: The House is set to vote tomorrow on whether to advance $880 billion in cuts to Medicaid — eviscerating essential programs that provide lifesaving services for people with disabilities, children, seniors, and more.

Tell your representative now: Don't cut Medicaid.
Congress: Save Medicaid Now
Politicians are attempting to pass devastating cuts to Medicaid right now and we must act fast. Send a message telling your member of Congress to fight back now.
