DID YOU KNOW…
🚌Medicaid funds about $7.5 billion a year in K-12 services like speech therapy, OT, PT, nursing, mental health support, & evaluations.
🏥 446 hospitals across the U.S. (including 7 in MN) are at risk of closure due to Medicaid cuts the GOP passed last year.
👴🏻 More than 5.4 million children in the United States are currently caring for their chronically ill and disabled family members. The proposed healthcare cuts in HR.1 could put additional strain on younger family members to become caregivers before they even turn 18.
FYI: Most of the damage done by HR.1 aka the BBB is set to hit after the midterms 🙄 Obviously, they don’t want people feeling the harm they caused before running to get reelected.
Cuts to Medicaid impacts ALL patients: worse care, fewer services, and less money for hospitals fighting to stay open in less populated or vulnerable areas.
