How far could you stretch a mere $50 in spending money each month?

Under state law, that's what nursing home residents are allowed under Medicaid to spend monthly on personal items like clothes, books, cards for family and friends, or hobby materials.

It's time to raise the $50 Personal Needs Allowance, or PNA, to a livable threshold. Call your elected officials and sign the petition today: https://forms.office.com/g/urMXCZJy42
