- Reposted by Natalie KeanIt doesn’t have to be like this. We don’t have to die at the hands of corrupt politicians, billionaires, and wealthy corporations. We can build a different world. While we do that, we have to care for each other and help each other survive this. We’ve done it before. @newdisabledsouth.org
- Reposted by Natalie Kean"Cutting Medicaid, Medicare, and SNAP is morally indefensible under any circumstance, but this budget bill is particularly cruel," said @kevinprindiville.bsky.social. It endangers not only the lives of today’s older adults but future generations as well. Read Justice in Aging's full statement:
- Let’s stop this bill before it: Takes healthcare from 17 million low-income people Cuts #Medicaid that enables older adults & disabled people to live in their own homes Shutters nursing facilities Penalizes people who lose their jobs by taking away their healthcare Call now! AAPD.com/Medicaid

- Call your representative and tell them to vote no. 202-224-3121 Tell everyone you know to do the same.
- The Senate just passed a dangerous and deeply unpopular budget bill that cuts health care and food assistance to pay for tax breaks for billionaires. @kevinprindiville.bsky.social characterized the bill as "a staggering betrayal of our nation's older adults." Read our full statement:

- Reposted by Natalie KeanA major proposal in the reconciliation bill would require people to report work to retain Medicaid eligibility. While lawmakers claim that people w. disabilities would not lose coverage, that is not true as Gelila Selassie & @jenlav.bsky.social explain. justiceinaging.org/examples-sho...

- Medicaid is more than a policy. It’s a lifeline for millions of people. Stop messing with #Medicaid, #Medicare and people’s lives. @chuygarcia.house.gov #ProtectMedicaid
- We won’t accept tax breaks for billionaires. We won’t accept ripping health care from 16 million people. @sanders.senate.gov #ProtectMedicaid
- Being poor is the hardest job. @pressley.house.gov It’s our job to not make it harder by stopping cuts to #Medicaid, #Medicare, the #ACA and #SNAP #ProtectMedicaid
- By every measure, the tax bill is as harmful as the bill the Senate rejected in 2017: it will take health coverage from 16 million people. History repeats itself. Let's make sure the ending is the same & the Senate rejects this bill too. #ProtectMedicaid www.brookings.edu/interactive/...

- Taking them at their word, they want to take #Medicaid from low-income older women most of whom left the workforce to provide caregiving. #ProtectMedicaid
- Republicans pushing to add work requirements to #Medicaid say they are targeting nonworking "able-bodied" adults. Here's who that is: 4/5 are women 1/4 are age 50+ 50% are age 40+ 1/4 live in a rural area Most are caregivers milbank.org/quarterly/op...
