Medicaid isn’t a line item. It’s a lifeline. And right now, Congress is considering cuts that could take it away from the people who need it most—kids, seniors, people with disabilities, and families right here in our community. This isn’t belt-tightening. It’s life-threatening. Cutting Medicaid means a cancer patient could be told their treatment ends now. A child could lose access to daily medication. A grandparent could be discharged before they’re ready to go home. If Medicaid is cut, it won’t just hurt “someone.” It could hurt someone you know. Someone you love. That’s why we’re urging Congress: don’t cut Medicaid. Because the real cost of cutting Medicaid isn’t in dollars—it’s in lives https://on.lung.org/4mdSvnC (fb)
