Last week, House Republicans narrowly passed Trump’s massive budget bill that slashes taxes for the ultra-wealthy by cutting
more than $700 billion from Medicaid and other critical programs.
As this bill heads to the Senate, Maria is ready to fight back.
ICYMI: Maria did not hold back in her CNN appearance last night as she relayed the stories of Washingtonians who will be greatly hurt by the GOP Medicaid cuts.

“But as I've traveled our state to talk about this… people are saying – ‘Yes, what do they expect? They just want us to die?’…They are on the economic fringe of just making it, and Medicaid helps them make it and provides that health insurance. And as they get older, they really are concerned, is it going to be there for them in their old age?”
“But America who is dependent on a more affordable health insurance and delivered by this system… is looking at a big fat cut for no reason other than to give a tax break to corporations.”

Maria is continuing to put herself on the line to protect Medicaid and the millions of Americans and Washingtonians who rely on it, but she needs to know that we’re still standing with her.

Nearly 1 in 5 Americans nationwide rely on Medicaid for primary care, elder care, children’s health care, and more. That includes 1.8 million Washingtonians, with 47% of children in our state being covered by Medicaid.
