The overwhelming majority of people with disabilities want to and can work. In fact, over 60% of adult Medicaid recipients are already working. But extremist in Congress what to balance the budget on our most vulnerable. Just say no @SenSchumer @PatRyanUC
@SpeakerMcCarthy introduced a new bill that would add restrictive work requirements to Medicaid. Congress expects to vote on the bill this week. Such requirements would remove much needed care for millions of people. Take action to #SaveMedicaid shorturl.at/cGPR5
We’re on Capitol Hill today to tell Congress: we need care, not cuts! #SaveMedicaid
The wealthiest nation in the world should make health care easier to access, not harder. Please sign this petition to tell Congress to #SaveMedicaid. Our leaders must protect Medicaid for the 88 million people in the U.S. who rely on it to access care. go.caringacross.org/a/sign-petitio…
