Call your Senators now

Ayanna Pressley for Congress

Movement family, Republicans in the Senate just released their version of the Big Ugly Bill, and it’s even more atrocious than the bill I voted against in the House.

This version of the bill doubles down on cruelty and callousness. It would rip away health care from even more people who need it, while deepening the pockets of billionaires through more tax breaks. The shame and sham of it all.

What happens in the coming weeks will determine the lives and livelihoods of families for decades to come. The Senate must stop this nightmare from becoming a reality. And we must ensure they’re hearing from their constituents right now.

We must make ourselves loud and clear: Cuts to Medicaid are deeply unpopular and will put our most vulnerable at risk. Call your Senators today and urge them to vote NO. By clicking this link, we’ll direct your call and provide you a short script. It’ll only take a few minutes — and make a huge difference.

The consequences cannot be more severe. Medicaid covers 2 out of 5 births in this country. Slashing Medicaid will only accelerate the maternal health crisis and widen the racial disparities that already harm Black women in my district — MA-07 — and across the country.

Half of the children in America are covered by Medicaid. It allows people with complex chronic conditions to afford the medications they need to stay alive.

And 10% of Medicaid enrollees are over the age of 60. It allows our elders and our neighbors with disabilities to receive care in their homes and to stay in their communities.

This is bigger than Democrat and Republican.

This is about right and wrong.

This is about good and evil.

The people deserve better, and we can stop this Big Ugly Bill.

Today, let’s make sure the Senate hears us. Take a few minutes and call your lawmakers to demand they protect Medicaid and the millions of people who are counting on it — along with other essential programs. Click here, and we’ll direct you to your members of Congress’ office lines.

In Solidarity,
