Congress is currently considering a budget package that would slash Medicaid funding, putting millions of Americans at risk of losing access to health care.
Medicaid, a joint federal and state program, is the single largest source of health coverage in the country. Nearly 72 million Americans, including children, pregnant people, parents, seniors with limited incomes, and people with disabilities, rely on Medicaid for essential care, including doctor visits, hospitalizations, long-term care, maternity care, mental health care, and rural clinic services.
