Republican lawmakers who said they won’t cut Medicaid LIED.

It’s official: Federal bill text shows what funding they want to cut to pay for tax breaks to billionaires—and it includes massive cuts to Medicaid and "defunding" Planned Parenthood

Cutting Medicaid funding means millions of people will lose access to health care—including affordable reproductive health care like birth control, cancer screenings, maternal health care, and STI testing and treatment.

Here are some examples of how people use Medicaid to access care:

Taylor is about to have a baby. Her Medicaid coverage helps ensure she has coverage before, during, and after her pregnancy. Medicaid covers 40% of all births in the US and plays a critical role in preventing maternal deaths. States with robust access to Medicaid see lower maternal mortality rates because more people have continued access ot the care they need before, during, and after pregnancy.

Ariana needs a cervical cancer screening but can't afford high medical bills. Her Medicaid coverage is accepted at her local family planning clinic. More than 70 million people are covered by Medicaid, and almost two-thirds of adult women enrolled in Medicaid are ages 19-44. The program funds 75% of publicly funded family planning services.

Jay is a student who uses their Medicaid coverage at Planned Parenthood for free or low-cost reproductive health services like contraception and STI testing and treatment. One in four people have been to a Planned Parenthood health center, and for many, Planned Parenthood is their sole health care provider. 2.4 million Americans rely on Planned Parenthood health centers each year, and more than half of these patients use Medicaid.

No one asked for this.

89% of Americans believe that funding for Medicaid should be kept the same or increased.
