Right now is a critical time for families who rely on Medicaid. Georgia stands to lose $33 billion in federal funding for Medicaid, CHIP, and financial assistance for marketplace coverage.
Nobody plans on disability.
Even if you don’t rely on Medicaid for coverage, ask your Senators and Representatives how the ACHA will affect the 69 million Medicaid beneficiaries across the US. You or someone you love will very likely depend on Medicaid in the future. Speak now before it’s too late.
