We were recently in Washington D.C to push back on proposed cuts to home health care.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid are proposing Medicare reimbursement rate changes that will negatively impact home health care services and the families that rely on them. These services are a lifeline for many New Yorkers and changes will cut that support system.

Make Congress hear your voice! 🗣️ 📢
Join us in fighting against changes that will affect the health and well-being of millions of Americans: https://bit.ly/4gHrmac

A special thank you to the UFT - United Federation of Teachers for joining us in Washington D.C!
