Medicaid isn’t a luxury—it’s a lifeline for 80 million people. CIR members and families showed up strong yesterday because we know what’s at stake. Cutting Medicaid means cutting care for our communities.

A cold, crappy rainy day and elderly and disabled people are in the streets protesting against cuts to their lifelines like Medicare Medicaid and Social Security. What kind of shit hole country doesn’t care for the most vulnerable?
