You’ve probably heard about DC Republicans’ proposal to cut Medicaid spending. But what you may not know is that what they’re camouflaging as “a way to slash government spending” is really just a way to rip healthcare away from millions of people.
About 1 in 4 Arizonans rely on our state Medicaid program.
These disastrous cuts could leave those Arizonans without quality, affordable health insurance and put families into financial turmoil. I refuse to let that happen to our communities and neighbors.
Republicans in DC don’t seem to care that gutting Medicaid will leave people without care.
But it’s not just individuals and families who rely on Medicaid — it’s hospitals and care facilities, too. These Medicaid cuts would force rural hospitals — which are sometimes the only healthcare facilities serving entire communities — to close.
