John,
Last night, President Trump addressed Congress, outlining his administration's agenda for the coming term. While he may not have chosen to address it in his speech, healthcare is on the minds of millions of Americans every day. That’s because Congress is proposing a budget that makes significant cuts to Medicaid — a move that poses a direct threat to essential services for individuals with disabilities.
We cannot let this happen. Will you help us fight to save Medicaid by donating today? Every dollar strengthens our advocacy efforts and helps protect the services that individuals with disabilities rely on.
Medicaid is a lifeline for millions, providing critical support that enables people with disabilities to lead independent lives. The proposed reductions in funding jeopardize access to vital healthcare services, community-based programs, and long-term care options. These cuts could lead to service closures, reduced access to in-home care, and harm family caregivers, many of whom are already struggling to make ends meet.
We cannot stand by while these essential services are undermined. It's crucial to raise our voices and advocate for the protection of Medicaid and the disability services it supports.
Many of you have helped us by writing to your Senators and Representatives to urge them to oppose any legislation that includes cuts to Medicaid. To date, we have sent nearly 9,000 messages to Congress. That’s amazing!
But this work takes a sustained effort. Do you think you could help us continue the fight to save Medicaid by donating $10, $25, or $50 today?
Your contribution, no matter the size, can make a difference in this critical fight. Together, we can ensure that individuals with disabilities continue to receive the support and services they deserve.
Thank you for advocating with us.
Sincerely,
Marlene Sallo
Executive Director
