Thank you @SenatorWicker for cosponsoring the #MCEDAct! We appreciate your commitment to this critical bill. Everyone deserves equitable access to #EarlyDetection of cancer. A bipartisan majority of Congress agrees: bit.ly/MCEDSupportMap

The proposed cuts in the budget bill would kick nearly 11 million people off their health insurance, including cancer patients. You can't put a price on people's lives. @SenHydeSmith , can I count on you to vote NO? #ProtectAffordableCare #ProtectMedicaid

@RepEzell, I'm extremely disappointed in your support of the House bill that will decimate #Medicaid & kick 8.6 million people off insurance. I urge you to reconsider when taking future votes that could compromise access to care for cancer patients & those at risk.

Thank you @BennieGThompson for voting against the House bill that will decimate #Medicaid & kick 8.6 million people off insurance. Supporting this lifesaving program—& the cancer patients, children & so many more who rely on it for health care—is the right thing to do.

Join a conversation on the 2025 federal Budget Reconciliation Bill advanced by the House Energy and Commerce Committee, and its implications for Medicaid and health care in MS, on May 22 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

Tens of thousands of @ACSCAN advocates urged the House Energy & Commerce Committee to reconsider Medicaid cuts that impact millions. Despite this, lawmakers who voted for these cuts chose to support the loss of health coverage for those with no other affordable options.

Tim went years without going to the doctor because he didn't have health coverage – and ended up with a cancer diagnosis. Mississippians like Tim can't afford to wait for health insurance #CloseMScoveragegap #msleg

An estimated 230 Mississippians will hear the words, “You have breast cancer,” during this year’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month. fightcancer.org/releases/breas… #MSLEG #closingthecoveragegap

For too many Mississippians, quality, affordable health coverage and mental health care is out of reach. When people are struggling with their mental health, we should encourage them to get help, not burden them with debt. #CloseMScoveragegap #msleg

Like many Mississippians, Brandon doesn't get health insurance through his job. He literally can’t afford to get sick or injured. Our hardworking friends and neighbors should have access to affordable coverage. #CloseMScoveragegap act.fightcancer.org/a/urge-mississ…
