"The committee’s proposal for extensive cuts to federal health funding, including sweeping Medicaid cuts, are estimated by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office to likely “reduce the number of people with health insurance by at least 8.6 million” nationwide. The legislation would also enact more than $700 billion dollars in health-related cuts, in addition to also promoting work requirements for people on Medicaid—which tends only to serve as a means of of kicking them off, even though federal data shows that a majority of adults on Medicaid already work full- or part-time."
Today I give thanks to the amazing protesters who are at the the Energy and Commerce Committee hearing that is currently underway.
They are trying to cut Medicare. We must shine a light on this to stop them!
My mother had stage 4 pancreatic cancer, and Medicare paid for the care that kept her alive for 2 years. I am so grateful.
We should be EXPANDING medicare, not gutting it!

Yes. Excellent point. The case for #MedicareForAll is compelling on moral grounds -- healthcare is a human right, but it is also good for businesses (except for those sectors that are profiting from the dysfunctional status quo; tough on them; no sympathy).
Why do manufacturers have to pay $25,000/employee for heathcare? How can they compete with manufacturers in other countries? Those healthcare costs then flatten wages.

Why Everyone Should Be Preparing For #MayDay 2028 https://inthesetimes.com/article/big-idea-shawn-fain-may-day-2028 #MedicareForAll #1u
In These TimesWhy Everyone Should Be Preparing For May Day 2028If we’re going to build enough collective power to win universal healthcare and the right to retire with dignity, then we need to tighten up.
In the U.S.—and across much of the world—fertility rates are falling, and populations are projected to shrink. People are having fewer children because the system makes it too hard, too risky, and too expensive. And then the right wonders why so many women get abortions. If you want birth rates and population to rise, then support #MedicareForAll and a living wage. #1u https://portside.org/2025-05-02/birth-rates-are-falling-here-are-real-solutions
PortsideBirth Rates Are Falling. Here Are Real Solutions.I have two beautiful daughters. But the journey to bring them into the world nearly broke me—physically, emotionally, and financially. It took three years of infertility treatments to get pregnant the first time and the cost drained our savings. One round of treatment can run upwards of $50,000—just for a single ovulation cycle, paid entirely out of pocket. And when we tried to fight our insurance denials, we were told there was a “medical alternative”: don’t have a baby.
The individual in question who attacked a nurse in #Maryland did not have the #MentalHealth care that they needed and thought she was the enemy. This attack never would have happened in a society with #MedicareForAll, when such people can get the help they need. https://www.cbsnews.com/baltimore/news/healthcare-violence-maryland-nurse-attack/
