Tell Congress: No Medicaid or SNAP Cuts!

On May 22, the House of Representatives approved a budget bill that would slash $715 billion from Medicaid and $300 billion from SNAP. This bill now moves to the Senate.

If this bill becomes law:

• States simply won’t have the money to fund the care and services people with disabilities NEED.
• Nearly 14 million people could lose their health insurance.
• More people will go hungry, including millions of kids.

Any cuts to Medicaid and SNAP will hurt people with disabilities. 

Medicaid:

• Provides essential health care to millions of children and adults with disabilities, so they can live healthier, fuller lives.
• Helps infants with disabilities get a strong start in life through vital developmental support.
• Allows children with disabilities to live at home instead of in an institution.
• Pays for people with disabilities to get assistance from home care workers for daily tasks, ensuring independence and dignity.

SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program):

• Helps low-income families, including people with disabilities, afford groceries and put food on the table.

This isn’t over—ACT NOW to tell Congress to reverse course and act to protect Medicaid and SNAP. No one should go without the food or health care they need!
