"description": "I just sent an email to my Representative and Senators telling them: ”No Cuts To Medicaid/Medicare”. Write your own. Click here: https://actionnetwork.org/letters/no-cuts-to-medicaidmedicare Proposed Cuts to Medicaid and Medicare Would Harm Americans: 1. Loss of Care for Millions: Up to 8.6 million people would lose care due tocuts, spiking the uninsured rate and reducing access to care. 2. State Budget Crises: Cuts would create insurmountable deficits in state budgets and force untenable budgetary choices. 3. Reduced Access in Rural and Underserved Areas: Cuts would threaten rural and other practices, eliminating care for seniors and others in need. 4. Closure of Safety Net Providers: Cuts would imperil hospitals and clinics that depend on federal funding, forcing closures and loss of care. 5. Loss of Long-Term Care Services: Cuts would force nursing homes and home-based services for seniors and people with disabilities to close. 6. Disproportionate Impact: Cuts would harm children, rural communities, and people with disabilities most, exacerbating health inequities. 7. Economic Strain on Families: Families would face bankruptcy and/or go without needed health care, increasing debt and financial insecurity. 8. Job Losses in Health Care Sector: Cuts would cause layoffs and reduced hiring in the health care sector, triggering unemployment. 9. Dire Consequences: Cuts would increase infant mortality, harm quality of life, decrease productivity, and increase lost work days due to illness. 10. Threats to Preventive and Primary Care: Cuts would slash preventive care, leading to worse health outcomes and higher costs in the long run. Write to your elected officials.
