Congress is making decisions that could deeply harm people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). A proposed budget could slash Medicaid by at least $715 billion, putting essential supports and lives at risk.

These cuts aren’t just numbers on a budget document; they’re a threat to the independence, dignity, and community of those we support.

📣 Take Action Today: Call or email your U.S. Senators and Representative.

Tell them: Reject Medicaid cuts. Protect services for people with I/DD.

Your voice matters. Now more than ever, it must be heard.

Message from Pennsylvania Health Access Network (PHAN): 

Last night, the House Budget Committee advanced its Budget Reconciliation bill that would terminate healthcare for over half a million Pennsylvanians who get their health coverage through Medicaid and the marketplace and double health insurance premiums for many more. 

Next, the bill is scheduled for a vote in the Rules Committee on Wednesday night and a possible floor vote on Thursday.

Now is the time to take action. Please contact members of the House of Representatives this week and let them know that your organization opposes the bill. It is particularly important to contact Representatives Fitzpatrick, Bresnahan, and Mackenzie. Let us know how your conversation went by emailing Bill England.
