Millions will lose healthcare.
Dear Friend,
Tell your Senator right now to protect Medicaid and other lifesaving programs.

The House just passed a budget bill with devastating cuts to Medicaid, food assistance, and essential services—programs that keep Americans healthy and alive. All to fund tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy and attack immigrants. They’re willing to take away healthcare from millions of Americans to do it.
The catastrophic results? More lives lost to overdose. More Americans suffering without access to care. More communities impacted by addiction spiraling out of control.
Medicaid is the nation's largest payer of addiction treatment. It provides critical access to medications that reduce the risk of fentanyl overdose, counseling that addresses the root causes of addiction, and inpatient care that offers people the stability they need to recover.
These aren’t luxuries—they’re life-saving services. But now, Medicaid faces a staggering $715 billion in cuts. The price of these cuts? Human lives.
This is more than a budget cut—it's a direct assault on health and overdose prevention services that help all of us live healthier and safer lives. If passed, this bill will impose more red tape, more barriers, and fewer chances for people to get the care they need to survive and thrive.
But there’s still time to act and save Medicaid and other lifesaving programs. The Senate will be the next to consider this bill—and your voice can help stop it.
Tell your Senators: vote NO on these cruel and dangerous cuts. Urge them to protect Medicaid, food assistance, and the essential services that prevent overdose and support recovery
