Why This Matters
🏥 Your family healthcare threatened:
82% of Americans want Medicaid funding increased or maintained, but Trump cuts would strip coverage from 11 million people—including 75% of Republican Medicaid recipients who worry cuts would harm their families
💼 Working families targeted:
Most SNAP 42 million recipients already work or can not work due to caregiving, but new requirements would kick 2.7 million households off food assistance worth an average $188 monthly
🏘️ Rural communities devastated:
70% of rural residents worry Medicaid cuts will harm local hospitals and providers, including 48% of rural Republicans who fear losing access to healthcare entirely
🗳️ Public opposition ignored:
Even 55% of Republicans oppose major Medicaid cuts and 61% of Americans oppose SNAP cuts, yet politicians prioritize tax breaks for wealthy over programs working families depend on
🚫 Impossible work requirements:
75% of affected families already work or are caregivers, students, or have disabilities—requirements create bureaucratic barriers that cause eligible people to lose coverage rather than increase employment
