While far too many Americans are struggling to make ends meet, today the House GOP passed Speaker McCarthy’s plan to rob millions of disabled Americans and older adults over 50 of their Medicaid health care coverage if they don’t meet an 80-hour per month work requirement.

AAPD strongly opposes this despicable action. An estimated 1.5 million adults will lose federal funding for their Medicaid coverage under this bill. Medicaid is already difficult to access, and people with disabilities already face severe health inequities.

The wealthiest nation in the world should make health care easier to access, not harder. Please sign this petition to tell Congress to #SaveMedicaid. Our leaders must protect Medicaid for the 88 million people in the U.S. who rely on it to access care.
