John,
This is what it looks like when Republicans are in charge: a budget that slashes nearly $900 billion from Medicaid while handing out $4 trillion in tax cuts to billionaires and massive corporations.
Let’s be clear—this isn’t a policy choice, it’s an attack on working people. And it’s going to hit Maine harder than most.
- 350,000 Mainers rely on Medicaid (MaineCare)—including children, seniors in long-term care, people with disabilities, and working families.
- If Republicans get their way, thousands of people will lose their healthcare.
- Nursing homes could close. Hospitals could cut services. Rural communities will be left behind.
- And to add insult to injury? If you make under $360,000 a year, you’re probably going to pay more in taxes to help fund handouts for billionaires.
This is what happens when we let the ultra-wealthy and their Republican allies run the show. They don’t care about the people who actually keep this country running.
We have to stop them. We have to take back the House, and that fight starts right now.
We need to raise $10,000 by midnight to re-elect Chellie, keep up the fight in Congress, and build the movement to take back power from the GOP. Can you chip in right now?
If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
This isn’t just numbers on a spreadsheet. This is about real people who will wake up one day and find out they’ve lost their healthcare. It’s about seniors who need home care, parents trying to get their kids to a doctor, and workers who are one medical emergency away from losing everything.
Chellie refuses to let them get away with this. If you’re with us, now’s the time to fight.
Make a donation now to stand up for working people and stop Trump and House Republicans from ripping away our healthcare.
Thank you for joining Chellie and being part of this fight.
