John,

Sixty years ago this week, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed Medicare and Medicaid into law, enshrining the idea that health care is a right — not a privilege.

But instead of honoring that promise, congressional Republicans rammed through Donald Trump’s just disastrous One Big “Beautiful” Bill Act, which includes the largest health care cuts in U.S. history.

Here are the impacts of Trump’s budget bill by the numbers:

• $1 trillion cut from Medicaid, Medicare, and the ACA
• An automatic $490 billion cut to Medicare still to come
• 15 million+ people nationwide projected to lose coverage
• 51,000 additional preventable deaths every year
• Hundreds of hospitals at risk of closure
• 1.2 million jobs lost by 2029

The 60th anniversary should’ve been a celebration of how far we’ve come. Instead, we’ve taken a step back, and this must be a call to action. Let’s show Congress the American people are watching.

Thanks for taking action,

Democratic Values
