Why This Matters
🏥 Your family health insurance is under attack:
Nearly 12 million Americans will lose health coverage by 2034, including working families who can not meet new bureaucratic requirements designed to kick people off Medicaid
💀 Preventable deaths from policy choices:
Harvard researchers estimate 18,000 annual deaths from Medicaid cuts as people lose access to prescription drugs, cancer screenings, and emergency care they need to survive
👶 Children lose specialized medical care:
4.2 million children will lose Medicaid coverage, meaning kids with diabetes, asthma, and developmental disabilities can not access the specialists who keep them healthy
💰 Rural hospitals face closure wave:
Medicaid cuts threaten 500+ rural hospitals that depend on the program for 60% of their revenue, potentially leaving entire regions without emergency medical services
⚖️ Work requirements ignore reality:
85% of Medicaid adults already work or care for family members, but new requirements will eliminate coverage for people between jobs, recovering from illness, or caring for sick relatives
