Necesitamos unir nuestras voces, exigir cambios y trabajar en comunidad para proteger a quienes más lo necesitan. La vida de nuestros niños depende de que enfrentemos esta epidemia con decisión y humanidad.

La violencia armada es una emergencia de salud pública que no podemos normalizar. Este problema es complejo y tiene múltiples capas: desde la salud mental hasta la seguridad con armas. Pero eso no significa que no tenga solución.

Hoy vivimos otra tragedia causada por un tiroteo en una escuela. Nuestros niños deberían preocuparse por sus exámenes de matemáticas o sus partidos de fútbol, no por sobrevivir en sus salones de clase.

Medicaid is a lifeline for our communities. If you have it or not, if it gets cut, the domino effect will touch all of us. #protectmedicaid #myvotemyhealth

Medicaid cuts may disproportionately affect Black, Latino doctors and their patients • Stateline Experts say potential cuts to Medicaid would strap health care centers that rely on already-low reimbursements, disproportionately affecting communities of color and the physicians they rely on.

"[Medicaid] is not just health insurance. It’s a lifeline": Doctors highlight the disproportionate impact on communities of color and the medical pros who care for them.

This isn’t just about health—it’s about opportunity.
Healthy children are more likely to stay in school, thrive, and reach their potential.

Medicaid covers more than 1 in 3 children in the U.S.
That’s over 35 million kids who get the care they need—from vaccines to mental health support.

Without Medicaid, many families would lose access to:
• Pediatric checkups
• Dental care
• Vision screenings
• Emergency services

En los próximos meses vamos a escuchar mucho ruido sobre el autismo.
Aclaremos algo:

El Trastorno del Espectro Autista NO es una enfermedad.
No tiene una sola causa.
Y sí, hoy se diagnostica más porque hemos aprendido a entenderlo mejor.

⚠️ El Congreso debate recortes en Medicaid, lo que significaría:
🚨 Millones de ninos que pudieran ser afectados
🚨 Menos acceso a salud mental y terapias
🚨 Menos médicos y más esperas
👶🏽 Niños y familias de bajos recursos serían los más afectados.

Here’s how you can help: 1️⃣ Contact your representative’s office this week. 2️⃣ Call (202) 224-3121, share your zip code, and ask to speak with your elected officials. 3️⃣ Let them know you’re a constituent and urge them to protect Medicaid!

Translate 🚨 Urgent Action Needed! 🚨

Congress is considering cutting Medicaid, which could affect our health, crowd ERs, and even force rural hospitals to close. Medicaid provides coverage for 80 million people, and it’s vital for both patients and healthcare providers.
