Did you know that Medicare and Medicaid cover nearly 1 in 3 Americans? These critical social safety nets have helped keep countless individuals and their families afloat for generations, including millions of seniors, pregnant women, and people with disabilities – and they are important resources we can’t afford to lose.
I’ve always stood against Republicans’ attempts to slash funding for these programs, but the latest cuts from Trump and the GOP majorities in Congress are dangerously close to becoming reality. Millions of Americans are at risk of losing their health care coverage.
The landscape of American health care changed forever nearly 60 years ago when President Johnson signed into law the Social Security Act amendment, which created Medicare and Medicaid. It’s hard to name another government program that has transformed more lives.
No one should have to choose between staying out of poverty and seeking the health care they need. Simply put: Medicare and Medicaid save lives and provide an invaluable peace of mind for so many.
