Earlier this week, the White House announced a massive spending freeze on critical federal programs. The news sent shockwaves through the country, throwing hundreds of programs that millions of families rely on—programs funded by your taxpayer dollars—into chaos.
Medicaid reimbursement portals shut down in all 50 states, leaving states and families scrambling. While the memo was rescinded, the White House made clear the fight is far from over.
We need your voice now, because we know lawmakers want to take away Medicaid funding that supports our livelihoods and our health care. Take a moment to contact your representatives and demand they protect Medicaid.
Let’s demand our representatives stop permanent cuts to Medicaid.
Medicaid is more than a government program—it’s a lifeline. It provides health coverage for 72 million Americans, that’s 1 in 5 people in our country. From children to seniors, Medicaid supports families, caregivers, and people with disabilities, ensuring they get the care they need to survive.
Attacks on Medicaid aren’t numbers on a budget—they disrupt lives.
From a newborn who needs care to a senior recovering at home, Medicaid touches every stage of life. Threatening these critical services would jeopardize the health of millions, forcing families into impossible decisions. Here’s what’s at stake:
- Families in crisis: Medicaid covers half of all births and nursing home care.
- People with disabilities left behind: Over 8 million Americans rely on Medicaid for long-term care, yet their services could be slashed.
- Children without healthcare: Nearly half of U.S. children are covered by Medicaid and could lose access to the doctors and care that keep them healthy and thriving.
Medicaid funding cuts would deepen inequities, reduce access to care, destabilize state healthcare systems, and raise costs for families.
We can’t let this happen. Contact your representatives today and demand they protect Medicaid Together, we can stop this attack on millions of families and ensure everyone gets the care they need.
Every action makes a difference. Let’s fight for the care and dignity every family deserves—because no one should have to choose between putting food on the table and getting the healthcare they need.
Thanks for all that you do,

National Domestic Workers Alliance
Thank you for being a dedicated supporter of the National Domestic Workers Alliance!
We're working day and night to win respect, recognition, and labor rights and protections for the more than 2.5 million nannies, house cleaners, and homecare workers.
The majority of domestic workers sit at the center of some of our nation’s most decisive issues because of who they are and what they do: they are women – mostly women of color, immigrants, mothers, and low-wage workers. They are impacted by almost every policy affecting the future of our economy, democracy and country.
Domestic workers can lead us toward a new, inclusive vision for the future for all of us -- and your grassroots support is the fuel that can get us there.
