Groceries. Gas. Healthcare. Childcare. The price of EVERYTHING is too high. Republicans promised lower costs. Instead, they raised our bills. Now, working families are paying more and getting less while billionaires and big corporations profit. #ThePriceIsHigh

How have Medicaid cuts impacted you and your family? Share your story with us action.momsrising.org/survey/HR1-a... #HealthCareHeist
Happy 61st Anniversary Medicaid/Reverse Cuts to Our Health Care with Medicaid story: "I have a plate with seven bolts and screws in my back, I've had three back surgeries, and I need another one. My Medicaid has been cut down to half. I no longer have my home health aide anymore, and they have reduced my child's and my SNAP amount down to a little over $100." — C., Fort Worth, TXHappy 61st Anniversary Medicaid/Reverse Cuts to Our Health Care with Medicaid story: "I am a mother of two adult sons who both have autism. Both of my sons receive support services via Medicaid. As a result of the Medicaid cuts, it has become harder to maintain our sons’ support services because they are dependent on Direct Support Professionals (DSPs). The need for providers to reduce services, leave Medicaid, or go out of business makes it difficult for individuals and families to access services." — K., Cary, NC
