Three Weeks to Save Medicaid!
Dear Community,
Some CCDC members and I were on a national call earlier today where federal experts told us that the next three weeks are going to be absolutely crucial to stopping deep and harmful cuts to Medicaid. Your Medicaid Stories are making a difference! The House committee in Washington, D.C . that will write the portion of the bill that would cut $880 from Medicaid was forced to push their committee mark-up back by one week due to opposition to cuts. Our advocacy is work, but we can't rest! We need you to do three things today:
1. Share your Story
There will be a vigil for Medicaid in Washington, DC this Wednesday, May 7th. One of CCDC's Staff members will be there in person and is taking a shift reading stories. Submit your story today to have it shared during the vigil! You can find use the Medicaid Story Link<https://ccdc.nationbuilder.com/r?u=tQoxkDmxYH8GK2Y1w23F3E1mvOSC4WdZErS-sMtjGgPR_YSxyX7kMLNmak3e34yOyD9RIsAXaqTEWgve08-pSfwlaX4jNlDjYRrEbPTCUMeGvXLp_Bx7HIncoYOMnQ8SThup2z6IiL1xa6pS64Yp3g&e=6b15c8d006c8287f8d882712db8c47c4&utm_source=ccdc&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=three_weeks_to_save_medicaid&n=1> to submit yours.
2. Call Your Representative:
Call your United States Representative and ask them to vote against cuts to Medicaid. One of our partners has set up a toll-free number that makes the Congressional switchboard easier to navigate. That number is 866-426-2631.
