Dear John,
We knew anti-abortion extremists in Congress were going to attack Medicaid and Planned Parenthood, but we finally have the exact numbers and they are unbelievable.
The bill being presented in Energy and Commerce contains more than $700 BILLION in cuts to Medicaid, which would leave over 7 million people without health insurance in the next decade. And if that is not far enough, their bill language contains a provision to defund Planned Parenthood, shutting down health centers across the country and stripping 2 million people of their health care provider.
Our call to action has never been more urgent: Please, Congress needs to hear from you right now.
For the next two days, the House Energy and Commerce will be debating this bill during a markup. We have a chance to let members know that the public unequivocally stands with Planned Parenthood, Medicaid and against these cuts.
Join All* Above All in calling on Congress to oppose these cuts and to protect Planned Parenthood. Click here to send a letter to members of the Energy and Commerce Committee asking them to vote NO on any budget that defunds Planned Parenthood.
