Friend --
Today is the day of Medicaid Expansion
Digital Advocacy Day! We are uniting online with advocates across
North Carolina to welcome our lawmakers back to Raleigh with one
simple message “Save Lives, Protect Hospitals, No Excuses, Expand
Medicaid.”
The Covid-19 pandemic reminds us that we
are all in this together and expanding Medicaid will help our North
Carolina families weather the storm during this public health crisis
and beyond.
