Today marks Medicaid's 60th anniversary — the program that has helped millions of kids, seniors, veterans and working families live healthier lives. Republicans' Big, Ugly Bill includes the largest cut to Medicaid in U.S. history, slashing $1 trillion from these life-saving programs.
One of the largest groups hit by Republican Medicaid cuts is kids. On the 60th anniversary of Medicaid, we are not celebrating; we are mourning. Republicans are making life harder for Michiganders of all ages and the providers who work to keep our communities healthy.
House Dems are here & we want to work with you to create a path forward for all Michiganders. Join State Representative Denise Mentzer, Democratic Leader Puri, State Representative Mike McFall and State Representative Morgan Foreman on Friday in Mt. Clemens to discuss the importance of health care. We want to hear your concerns, questions and ideas, especially with Republican Medicaid cuts impacting 1 in 4 Michiganders.
Families in Detroit and across Michigan are standing up to say loud and clear: health care is a human right. As Trump and Republicans attack Medicaid and SNAP, folks are fighting to protect their care, their kids and their communities.
