Republicans in Congress are trying to cut Medicaid across the country.
And if they do, hundreds of thousands of Virginians could lose health insurance instantly.
Virginia has an outdated trigger law that will go into effect if Republicans in D.C. reduce federal funding obligations for Medicaid by even one percent. And if that happens, the 630,000 Virginians covered by previous Medicaid expansions would immediately lose coverage.
This would have a devastating impact throughout our commonwealth and the country.
I'm committed to defending and expanding Medicaid, not cutting it.
I believe healthcare is a human right and every single Virginian deserves to have access to affordable care, including reproductive health care, safe and legal abortion, contraception, and low-cost prescription drugs.
And I won’t stop fighting for that right, no matter what Republicans do.
I hope you’ll join me because there are literally hundreds of thousands of lives on the line. If you can, please make a contribution of any amount to support my campaign for Lieutenant Governor of Virginia today. Together, we’ll protect health care access for our commonwealth.
