The Senate will be considering a budget package next week that makes many changes to Medicaid, including eliminating coverage for transgender youth and HIV coverage, and restricts SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits. The bill also removes transgender healthcare as an EHB (essential health benefit) for plans available on state exchanges under the Affordable Care Act. This bill would force millions of families to choose between paying for healthcare, food, or housing each month, impacting every family who relies on Medicaid for healthcare, from HIV prevention and treatment, to transgender healthcare, to general well-being. This bill must be stopped by the Senate. Contact your Senator and tell them to vote no NOW! State Actions Mainers LD 233, LD 868, and LD 1134 might reach the State House floor very soon. Those bills would keep trans kids from playing sports and ban them from bathrooms, locker rooms, and other school facilities. Tell your legislators to respect trans kids and vote NO on these bills! New Hampshirites SB 211, an anti-trans athlete and facilities ban, and HB 377, an anti-trans healthcare ban, have each passed one chamber of the state legislature. We need your help to stop these bills from getting to the Governor's desk. Tell your legislators to respect trans kids and vote NO on these bills! |
