Congress has announced plans to cut Medicaid as part of its nearly trillion-dollar tax cut -- money they'll take from working-class people and hand over to billionaires. These cuts will run people out of their homes, tank local economies, jack up costs for people with insurance, and cost lives. We need to act!
Medicaid covers over a million Wisconsinites, including low-income people, children, parents, seniors and people with disabilities. In Wisconsin, 1 in 3 children are on Medicaid, as are 1 in 3 people with disabilities and over half of people in nursing homes.
Over 150,000 people in western and northwestern Wisconsin need Medicaid. We must make our representatives understand the costs if they support this budget.
Whether you're ready to march, have a story to share, or just have questions, join us on Tuesday, March 25 at the CVTC Business Education Center (room 103, the Casper Conference Center) in Eau Claire for a public town hall about Medicaid cuts. We'll learn about what's at stake for all of us, hear from neighbors who are directly at risk, and talk with local elected officials about what we're doing to fight back and how you can get involved. Doors open at 6:30 pm. Free parking in CVTC lots west of the building, labeled P1 and P9.
This event is FREE open to the public, but registrations are appreciated. Click here to register for our town hall! https://email.everyaction.com/EmailMessage/PreviewMessage/7a46c94a-c0fe…
