Protect Medicaid. Stop Healthcare Cuts.
Federal and State Legislators
Healthcare should be there when people need it. Not disappear when life gets hard.
Families should not lose healthcare because of paperwork, unstable work schedules, or rules that make coverage harder to keep.
Recent decisions by lawmakers will make it harder for people to get and keep their Medicaid coverage by adding reporting requirements, creating more red tape, creating new costs for patients, and discouraging families from seeking care.
The people most affected would be those already stretched thin: workers with unpredictable hours, caregivers, children, pregnant people, and communities that already face barriers to healthcare.
We believe healthcare should work for patients.
No one should lose care because they lost hours at work, missed paperwork, got sick, or could not navigate another administrative hurdle.
Add your name to tell lawmakers:
• Keep Medicaid accessible and reduce unnecessary paperwork requirements
• Protect coverage for children and pregnant people
• Reject policies that discourage families from getting care
• Keep healthcare affordable by avoiding new costs for patients

Healthcare should not disappear because someone lost hours at work, missed paperwork, or could not navigate another administrative hurdle.
Recent federal Medicaid changes, along with state implementation decisions, will make it harder for people to get and keep healthcare by adding new paperwork requirements, increasing administrative burdens, creating additional costs for patients, and making it easier for eligible people to lose coverage.
These changes could affect people in every state, especially workers with unpredictable schedules, caregivers, children, pregnant people, people with low incomes, and communities that already face barriers to healthcare.
Patients should not lose access to doctor visits, medications, mental healthcare, prenatal care, preventive care, or long-term health support because life changed or paperwork got in the way.
We call on policymakers to:
• Protect access to Medicaid and reduce unnecessary administrative barriers
• Ensure eligible people can keep their healthcare coverage
• Keep healthcare affordable and avoid adding costs that prevent people from getting treatment
• Protect access to care for children, pregnant people, families, and communities that rely on Medicaid
• Build a healthcare system that helps people stay healthy instead of pushing people out of care
Healthcare should be there when people need it.
People should not lose care because they lost hours at work, missed a form, or could not keep up with bureaucracy.
Americans deserve a healthcare system that helps people stay healthy, not one that pushes people out.
