Over 5,000 West Virginia children lost their Medicaid health coverage in July due to procedural denials- not necessarily because they are no longer eligible but due to paperwork barriers.

Thank you @RepJayapal for always being a champion of our communities and for fighting for a gentler, more just healthcare system. We’re going to protect and expand Medicare, fight Medicare Advantage, and finally achieve #MedicareForAll in America.
