Republican Medicaid cuts could shutter rural hospitals, maternity care Potential Medicaid cuts could devastate America’s teetering rural health-care system and jeopardize Republicans’ political power among rural voters.

"Rural hospital leaders in Arkansas, Colorado, Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri and Texas who spoke to The Washington Post warned that the enormous cuts congressional Republicans are weighing could further destroy limited health-care access in rural America..."

Without NIH funding for research, "your mother's cancer will wait for a cure. Your child's genetic disorder will wait for a breakthrough. The research that could save lives may be delayed or never come." ~Melissa Byrn, UChicago @standupforscience.bsky.social #StandUpForScience2025

Rep. Jim McGovern: "Last night every single Republican voted NO to protect Medicaid & to ensure kids are fed. Every. Single. One."

NEVER FORGET! Hunger is STILL a dangerous issue in America. The GOP want to control a woman's UTERUS, but could care less about the child once it's born. So DISGUSTING!

House Republicans just passed this budget resolution by the thinnest of margins after first cancelling the vote, but every Democrat voted against it and the lines here are clear.

We will fight their cuts to Medicaid and tax cuts for the rich tooth and nail.

Nearly 50% of children in Texas 30 alone will be affected by the Republican Medicaid and CHIP Cuts! Medicaid and The Children's Health Insurance Plan is an important role in my district, over half of my constituents will be affected by this cut!

A really important email from my friend Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social . As he says "this is a 5 alarm fire."

America is under attack right now.

For any Republicans out there-- don't you see what's happening? Your elected officials, drunk with power, are quietly and quickly getting filthy rich. And in exchange, they're cutting your Medicaid, cutting your education funding, cutting SNAP benefits, cutting medical research.

β€œThe thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

It’s pretty wild to watch a governor in a wheelchair trying to take away accommodations for disabilities…

Why aren’t we looking into corporate welfare? In the United States, it costs taxpayers billions each year, with estimates ranging from $92 billion to $100 billion annually. Meanwhile, USAID costs only $40 billion. Hmmm… doesn’t add up.
