NC Health Professionals Protest

Start: Saturday, February 25, 201710:00 AM

We are a bi-partisan group of concerned healthcare professionals in North Carolina who will be gathering to send a message to Senator Thom Tillis: Dont take away healthcare from our patients! Dont repeal or defund Obamacare, Medicaid, or Planned Parenthood. Thom Tillis should vote NO on repeal without simultaneous replacement that provides the same quality coverage to as many people as the Affordable Care Act. Repealing the health law without a guaranteed comprehensive replacement plan is risky and irresponsible. Repealing the ACA puts 30 million people at risk to lose care across the country. More than 400,000 people will lose care in North Carolina . Block grants and per capita caps are cuts to Medicaid and shift costs to the states requiring cuts to care. They do not promote innovation and put the most vulnerable at risk. Millions will lose access to STI testing, cancer screening, and contraception provided by Planned Parenthood Please join us in telling Senator Tillis: HELP us do our jobs in taking great care of patients and communities! Please RSVP and feel free to share this link with everyone you know -- especially those who would consider joining us! https://www.facebook.com/events/1037794309659800/
