   Right now, Congress is debating a budget that would cut $880 billion from
   Medicaid—a health care program that is a lifeline for over 72 million
   Americans. This critical program helps families stay healthy and
   financially stable, and it also gives important support to the doctors and
   hospitals we ALL depend on. A massive cut like this would be devastating
   to our families and communities and it would take away the ability for
   millions of people to access comprehensive, affordable health care. This
   is a critical moment in the fight to protect Medicaid!

   Hands off Medicaid!

   look like in action?

       you and your local community with ideas on how to effectively organize
       together and take action.
     * A Monthly Zoom Workshop: We will also host a monthly community Zoom

   Earlier this month, the Republican-led U.S. House of Representatives
   passed a budget resolution that would cut at least $880 billion in
   Medicaid funding through 2034—which would affect 72 million Americans who
   rely on this program for their health insurance. Currently, Medicaid
   covers 15 million Americans with disabilities nationwide, providing
   essential health coverage and life-changing support services that help
   them live independently and thrive in their communities.

                                    Our Vote
   Last month, we held our April 2025 Community Meeting Hands Off Our Care
   and Our Vote, featuring experts and special guests who shared insider
   information on how we can take action and advocate effectively for our
   families and communities. On this webinar, we learned how Trump’s $4.5
   trillion tax plan would put essential programs like Medicaid, Social
   Security, and Head Start at risk; how the SAVE Act will impact our right
   to vote; and how, together, we can take meaningful steps to protect our
   communities, our essential programs, and our rights!
