California once had a 95% insured rate. Now, over 2 million Californians are at risk of losing their Medi-Cal benefits, leaving countless families uninsured. Trump’s Medicaid cuts will kill people across the state.

Just one year after the passage of the Big Ugly Bill, we have seen devastating cuts to healthcare nationwide and here in our community. On this week's Healthcare Listening Tour at La Clinica Monument in Concord, I sat down with community health providers about the new challenges they face as a result of Republicans’ cruel cuts.
61 years ago, our country made a promise that getting sick or falling on hard times should never mean going without health care.
Trump & Republicans broke that promise. They gutted Medicaid to give billionaires a massive tax cut. Now, millions of Americans are losing coverage--including nearly 40,000 in CA-28.
I won't stop fighting to reverse these devastating cuts.
61 years ago, President Johnson signed Medicare and Medicaid into law—providing millions of vulnerable Americans with a pillar of health and economic security.
He did so in Independence, Missouri, alongside President Truman, who championed the initiative during his time in office.
As Republicans gut these vital lifelines to give more tax cuts to the rich, our fight to protect the care that millions of Americans rely on has never been more important.
Premiums are skyrocketing, Republicans are kicking people off of Medicaid, and the overall uninsured rate is down for the first time in a decade+
All thanks to @dgvaladao and Republicans in Congress
New: With enhanced ACA premium subsidies expired and Medicaid cuts phasing in, the Congressional Budget Office expects the share of the population uninsured to rise above 10% for the first time since the ACA was implemented.
This Administration chose to withhold $867 million in Medicaid payments. Holding proven perpetrators of fraud accountable is imperative, but holding millions of Californians’ healthcare hostage over partisan differences is wrong. It’s time to stop playing politics with people’s lives and livelihoods and end political attacks on our healthcare.

Thank you to @KMUD for this deeply reported story on what GOP Medicaid cuts mean for one rural CA county's access to healthcare

Millions lost health insurance because Republicans like David Valadao and Kevin Kiley gutted the tax credits that made it affordable

Rural hospitals are being devastated by the GOP Medicaid cuts.
Here's what it means for SoHum health and California's north coast:

The Trump administration's bad judgment and shifting priorities, including significant budget cuts to USAID, have led to deadly consequences.

Nearly 400,000 Californians dropped health coverage because they can't afford it any more
Thanks to David Valadao and Kevin Kiley and Darrell Issa and every other House Republican that refused to extend the ACA tax credits.

"Valadao is particularly vulnerable after he voted to cut Medicaid spending, a critical resource for many in this poor, rural area. Two-thirds of residents in the district are enrolled...and more than 60,000 are expected to lose coverage when work requirements take effect."
"With Medicaid cuts hitting this poor, rural region hard, both candidates pitch themselves as champions for healthcare and working families as Democrats eye the seat as pivotal to retaking control of the U.S. House."

"Health care, specifically rural health care, could become a liability for the party as the impacts of the Medicaid cuts under the Republican bill start to be felt."
