DO YOU HAVE A DISABILITY AND LIVE IN IDAHO?
Act Now
Idaho lawmakers are considering cuts to Medicaid services for people with disabilities, including cuts to services included in the Aged & Disabled (A&D)
Waiver and the Developmental Disabilities (DD) Waiver and children’s services, including behavioral health programs. These services help people live independently at home instead of in isolating and costly institutions.
CUTTING THESE SERVICES COULD FORCE PEOPLE INTO INSTITUTIONS and cost the state more money.
What you can do:
Contact members of the House Health and Welfare Committee now. Share why HCBS matters to you, your family, or your community.
Here’s how:
Send an email with your personal story
Call a committee member to express your support for HCBS
Request a meeting (in person or virtual) to explain the impact
**All of the above!**
Personalized messages from local constituents carry the most weight. Find contact for House and Senate Health and Welfare committee members below. The city they represent is included. Each committee member is listed with a major city from their district
for reference; however, you can also identify and contact your specific legislators using the Idaho Legislature’s online legislator search tool:
Enter street address followed by zip code (i.e., 700 W. Jefferson, 83420), and click Find. You may also click on the map to determine who the State Senator and House Representatives are for that location, or contact your county clerk for official legislative district information.
