Tell Congress NO on Cuts to Medicaid!

Please read and act on this urgent action alert from AIDS United!

Medicaid could be a target for deep cuts when the “super committee” begins meeting this week. The “super committee,” the group of Congressional Members charged with reducing the federal deficit starts meeting this week—we need to exert pressure now!

  • Millions of Americans, including persons living with HIV/AIDS, rely on Medicaid for their basic health care needs;
  • Devastating cuts will put the health of the most vulnerable populations at risk;
  • Members of Congress are paying close attention to public opinion on this issue as many of them will be up for reelection next year

In a matter of seconds, you can make an impact on this critical issue in one of two easy ways!

  1. Click the "Take Action Now" text above to send an email to your Senators and Representative, telling them that you are strongly AGAINST cutting Medicaid and that they must protect this vital program.
  2. You can also tweet your Senators and Representatives. There will be a default tweet message will be filled in for you.
