TELL CONGRESS: CLOSE THE MEDICAID COVERAGE GAP
Over 2 million low-income adults living near the poverty line in 12 states don’t have health insurance. They earn less than $12,880 per year – too much to qualify for traditional Medicaid, but not enough for Affordable Care Act subsidies. Congress needs to finish the ACA and close the Medicaid Coverage gap in budget reconciliation so that people with limited financial resources can live healthier lives.
Providing everyone in this country with good healthcare is of the greatest importance. Why should middle and
lower income Americans have to suffer because they can afford it? It is a national embarrassment, and should
be remedied.
Who are we as a nation? Look to how we treat the materially poor among us. Medicaid is a lifeline for our brothers and sisters, and our nation’s children, living in poverty. We have the power to support them. Will you help?
It is vital to provide healthcare to those who are low income and work but fall into the coverage gap to enable them to get the care they need, along with those essential workers impacted by COVID.
In addition to legislative approaches, let’s expose health “care” CEO executive salaries and compensation especially compared to front-line nurses who risk their lives. Quit excusing and over-looking executive pay.
Health care is a fundamental human right. Fix this legally!!
Having access to Healthcare is a human right. You have the ability to help and support individuals, children and families.
People deserve affordable and competent health benefits for their families and Medicare and Medicaid should be the norm and be preserved
I know that healthcare coverage for ALL, including mental health issues is priority with you. We are deeply grateful for your work. Blessings and best wishes.
No one should suffer because of the lack of affordable health care in this country. We can always do better.
Good health care is essential for all no matter one’s status. Please make it readily available! Sister Rosita Aranita
No truly civilized country should allow a segment of it’s people to languish outside the reach of quality health care. Surely every nation will ultimately be judged by how it treats its marginalized.
I’ve been gifted in having GREAT health insurance becuase of where I work and can afford my healthcare. Other’s in my family can’t say that. This really needs to be passed.
Affordable health care should be a given for all not just the wealthy. We can do better.
Our country needs affordable health care for all! Please honor our citizens and your job as our representative by voting in favor of the Reconciliation Bill.
Please, do the right thing and set partisan politics aside. We, the people, are weary watching you place your political futures above the needs of the vulnerable, your constituents who placed you in office to represent the needs of all.
Please understand that not only the Medicaid gap effects citizens but also the health care of all persons. We can not have another pandemic and expect to care for the underserved without help
healthcare for all keeps country true to its foundational rights. close medicare gaps.
Please, medical care is expensive and important. Please help.
Do your job!!
Congress must act so that people with limited financial resources can get the health care they deserve.
