Happy 53rd birthday, Medicare and Medicaid! Sign now to strengthen, not cut, critical health care services.
All Members of Congress
The Trump-GOP tax scam is undermining health care for working families. To pay for their $2 trillion tax scam for the rich and corporations, Donald Trump has proposed cutting $1.3 trillion from Medicare, Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act. Congressional Republicans have proposed $2 trillion in cuts.
Their tax scam has also given gigantic tax cuts to insurance companies and big drug companies, which continue to pad their profits while raising healthcare costs for average Americans.
As a candidate, Trump promised not to cut Medicare and Medicaid. Yet, since taking office, he has tried to undermine and upend these critical programs that serve 120 million Americans each year. Trump and Congressional Republicans are also out to destroy the Affordable Care Act―costing millions their health coverage, driving up the cost of health insurance premiums across the country and endangering health coverage for anyone with a pre-existing condition.
At a time when the 10 biggest drug companies are getting a $76 billion tax cut on profits stashed offshore, and prices for the most widely used prescription drugs have skyrocketed, we need to demand that Congress stand with the American people over corporate profits.
Sign the petition to Congress demanding that instead of attacking Americans’ health care, they strengthen Medicare, Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act for working families and older Americans.

The Trump-GOP tax scam gave huge tax cuts to the wealthy and corporations that cost $2 trillion. Now, Trump and Republicans in Congress are demanding $1.3 to $2 trillion in cuts to Medicare, Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act to pay for those tax cuts for the rich, and for drug companies and health insurers that jack up prices to pad their profits. We do not accept cuts to critical health care services to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy and corporate special interests. At a time when the healthcare industry is reaping record profits―forcing Americans to pay the highest prescription drugs prices in the world―we demand that Congress strengthen, not cut, Medicare, Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act. And Congress should repeal the Trump-GOP tax cuts for the rich and corporations to pay for it.
