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. bit.ly/NOBigUglyCuts

"Now is the time for @cagovernor to prove his allyship in supporting a budget that reflects funding for LGBTQ+ resources & community centers to improve our lives, not only thru this budget cycle but for years to come," said @CALGBTQHealth's Ariela Cuellar. publicnewsservice.org/2025-06-24/lgb…

Stable housing & acceptance are imperative for children’s health & mental well-being. Many #LGBTQ+ youth do not benefit from an accepting home, which can force them to live in unstable housing, like a shelter or campground. Learn more: bit.ly/AChildIsAChild… @healthaccess @eqca @CALGBTQHealth

CA has long been a national leader in health equity & repro justice. But @CAgovernor's budget proposal threatens to roll back that progress, especially for LGBTQ+ health, by cutting $31M from CA's Office of Health Equity. Take action and fight back TODAY: secure.everyaction.com/F9OWAtMeRk287S…

With terrible federal cuts looming to core programs that protect our basic needs, Jazmín from our policy team was on the ground in Sacramento with #Health4All to protect California’s Medi-Cal program. The Governor’s #CABudget May Revise proposal includes cuts and delays to services that would hurt California communities and children’s health. @CAgovernor made a promise to Californians—especially children and immigrant families. Health care is a human right and key driver of child and family health. California has led the way to make sure everyone gets health coverage: we can’t go back!

Medicaid cuts will cost lives in @RepYoungKim's district as health facilities close, wait times increase, and healthcare-related travel increases. Seniors and children would be the most affected. Orange County residents deserve better. #HandsOffMedicaid #DefendMediCal

Today, we joined @RepYoungKim in Anaheim to stand up for Medi-Cal & protect health care for 125K+ residents. Nearly 20% rely on it for vital services like home care, helping families care for elderly parents or children with disabilities without impossible choices.

Over 92M Americans rely on Medi-Cal in CA for healthcare, including LGBTQ+ individuals who depend on it for lifesaving gender-affirming care. Federal cuts will leave millions without essential services, jeopardizing our community's health. #HandsOffMedicaid
