We are #FightForOurHealth – a coalition of 200+ organizations fighting to protect healthcare for children, seniors, veterans, and people with disabilities in California. Congress is pushing for devastating cuts to Medi-Cal that will impact millions. Will you join our fight? 💪
“It's shameful that @YoungKimCA and @RepDavidValadao listen to billionaires, big corporations, and Republican leaders, but would not even give caregivers, or people with disabilities, seniors, children and working families in their district and audience." - @SEIU2015
The U.S. Senate just voted to pass the big ugly bill—a bill that rips almost a trillion dollars way from #Medicaid, while also making major policy changes with little oversight. It's our last chance to stop it—tell House Representatives: VOTE NO. https://t.co/AwlXfFZ76b
This morning @SenAlexPadilla joined members of the #FightForOurHealth coalition—including our ED, Amanda McAllister-Wallner—to decry the devastating impacts that passing the federal budget proposal, aka the “big ugly bill”, will have on the health of Californians.
🔥 @PressSec: What’s in Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill?

3️⃣ Bigger child tax credit 👨👩👧👦
4️⃣ No taxes on tips & overtime 👮♂️
5️⃣ Slashes taxes on Social Security for seniors 👴🇺🇸
🚨 PASS THE BILL — Usher in a New Golden Age!
THEY SOLD OUT. Their vote will gut Medi-Cal (California’s Medicaid program) and threaten seniors in nursing homes, people with disabilities, people fighting cancer, children, veterans, and more.
Know their faces - know the people who sold out.
@RepDavidValadao You also promised to protect Medicaid - then went back on your word. You've sold out the very people you vowed to serve. Seniors in nursing homes, people with disabilities or fighting cancer, children, veterans - you handed them a loss with your vote. And we won't forget it.
@YoungKimCA You promised to protect Medicaid - then went back on your word, voting to slash $800B from the life-saving program. You've sold out the very people you vowed to serve, putting partisan politics ahead of your constituents’ lives in Orange County. How is that the American Dream?
Communities across California are united with one message: Congress needs to join the #FightForOurHealth. From phone banking to rallies, we're making our voices heard.
Protect Medicaid and Medi-Cal.
Protect your constituents.
Protect the most vulnerable.
...what they said. 👏 All of us in Orange County have our eyes on you. #FightForOurhealth and PROTECT Medicaid, Medi-Cal, and everyone in your district who rely on you. @YoungKimCA
Everyone deserves health care. ❤️
But California is threatening to break its Health4All promise—by cutting Medi-Cal for those who need it most.
📢 Your voice matters. Share your story and speak out against these harmful cuts.
Use our #SalvaMiMediCal toolkit to contact state leaders and demand they protect Medi-Cal for all Californians.

Millions of Californians are at risk of losing their health care, living sicker, dying younger, and falling further into medical debt with the proposed health care cuts. If these health care cuts are approved, voters will never forget who voted for them.
🧵Don't let Republicans in Congress hide behind their taglines: they're looking to vote in favor of punishing our neighbors who need and rely on Medicaid.
"Protect Medicaid for the most vulnerable." = We decide who is worthy of health care or not while crafting language to terminate health care for millions of Californians.
