Tell Congress: DO NOT cut Medicaid!

Dear MoveOn member,

Republicans are signaling they are likely to gut Medicaid to the tune of $2.3 trillion, all so that they can give tax cuts to the ultra-wealthy like Elon Musk, as well as large corporations.^1,2

We can't let that happen.

Over the next few weeks, Republicans will be meeting to figure out how they plan to pay for President Trump's tax cuts for big corporations and the ultra-wealthy, who stand to benefit the most.³  And make no mistake about it: In order for these tax cuts to happen, Trump and Republicans will likely need to make significant cuts elsewhere.⁴

That's why we need your help to make it crystal clear to Congress that reducing Medicaid health benefits, or kicking millions of Americans off Medicaid to give tax cuts to the rich, is a nonstarter!⁵ Add your name to tell Republicans NO cuts to Medicaid!

Throughout his presidential campaign, Donald Trump claimed to be the better candidate for lowering the cost of living and putting more money in American's pockets. But President Trump and his Republican Party’s attempt to cut Medicaid—a crucial state and federal partnership that provides health care for more than 80 million Americans—would significantly reduce access to the care and medication that people need.⁶

In fact, cutting vital programs like Medicaid would also create major gaps in state funding and devastate state budgets. It would then, in turn, force states to raise taxes or cut certain parts of their budget in order to fill the gap.⁷

And just last week, President Trump tried to cut Medicaid when he attempted to pause funding to federal grant programs before his administration was forced to temporarily put those plans on hold.⁸

No one should have to choose between getting the health care they need and paying for rent, gas, or groceries because of high costs.

With your help, we can fight back against President Trump and Republicans' latest attempt to gut our health care system, just like we did during his first term.

Sign the petition now to tell Congress: Keep your hands off our Medicaid!

Thanks for all you do.
