Congress is actively considering cuts to Medicaid—a lifeline for kids with cancer and their families. If passed, these changes will create dangerous barriers to care, putting lives at risk. Kids lives depend on Medicaid. Call your rep today to #ProtectMedicaidProtectKids

More than 37M kids - including 1 in 3 with cancer - rely on Medicaid and CHIP. Congress is considering cuts that would make it harder to get treatment and support they need. We must protect Medicaid. Kids lives depend on it. Call your rep today to #ProtectMedicaidProtectKids
