Senate committees have begun marking up their portions of a reconciliation bill to enact key pieces of President Trump’s agenda. Specifically, the Senate Finance Committee, which has primary jurisdiction over Medicaid and other health care programs, is expected to mark up its part of the bill as early as this week. Significant Medicaid cuts are being considered, with nearly 11 million Americans facing the loss of their health coverage as a result. 

Contact your senator today and urge them to reject funding cuts to Medicaid and other health care programs. Customize the sample email to explain how cuts to Medicaid and other programs would reduce access to care and services for their constituents and your community.
