🚨If funding is not secured by the March 8 deadline, patients will lose access to efficient, low-cost, high-quality care from trusted health centers. #ValueCHCs 📷 Call on Congress, send a letter, and share with your network.

Thank you again for contacting Congress about the Jan. 19 funding deadline! 43 days remain to win final passage of a long-term, stable funding bill. We hope you're willing to use your voice and influence to stand up for health centers!

[Alcona Health Center @AlconaHealth]

Thanks to everyone who contacted Congress! A short-term bill passed extending health center & primary care workforce funding thru March 8. We urge Congress to pass a long-term extension that increases funding to close the #PrimaryCare gap.

Have you spoken with your elected officials about the Community Health Center funding expiration on January 19? They're specifically asking to hear from supporters' voices like yours. Don't wait! https://t.co/FqyLx5bKX4

Congress is negotiating a short-term funding bill that includes CHCs…. BUT, they still have to vote to pass the funding. Your voice is still needed. Let's keep calling to move this across the finish line! https://t.co/E7zZFjX8xu

The House took a historic step forward for families by passing the Lower Costs, More Transparency Act. We urge @SenStabenow & @SenGaryPeters to build on the momentum by passing similar legislation as soon as possible, to get the job done for patients in Michigan.
