We need you to join our urgent fight to Protect Medicaid.

Congress is currently considering a budget that would cut $1 trillion from Medicaid, the largest-ever cuts to Medicaid in the program’s 60-year history. 

If this bill passes, it will rip health insurance away from at least 17 million Americans, and reduce or completely remove Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits from all 40 million low-income Americans who rely on SNAP to feed themselves and their families. 

There has never been a more important time to use your power to advocate to Protect Medicaid. AAPD has created many tools and resources to help you do so.
