This week, I had the chance to sit down with Michiganders whose lives and livelihoods are on the line because of Republican attacks on Medicaid. As a community health worker, Brenda sees the importance of Medicaid firsthand every single day.

No one is attacking Medicaid, they are removing corrupt accounts that are stealing our tax dollars.

In Seattle, I met with doctors and health care leaders about Republican attacks on Medicaid, the ACA, and vaccines. From every angle, Republicans are driving up costs and making America less healthy. Democrats are fighting to lower costs and save your health care.

Medicaid provides 40% of the funding for community health centers. Medicaid supports 2 out of 3 people in nursing homes. Medicaid provides health care to 41 million children. Trump and his Republican friends want to enact massive cuts to the program. We won't let them.

Trump’s attacks on healthcare have been devastating. I visited Terros Health in Phoenix this week—a community health center stretched to the brink by cuts to Medicaid and food assistance. We should be strengthening these lifelines, not starving them.

Cooper: Remember, on Medicaid expansion, Republican Thom Tillis, stood up on the floor and said, “I can’t vote for this one big beautiful bill because I don’t know what I’d tell the people of North Carolina.” He knew that many people were going to lose their health insurance. And remember, the Medicaid cuts will come after the election.

A white Republican councilman came out recently as a trans woman of color. Shockingly, this brave pioneer has been rejected by the trans community. I had the chance to sit down with Ryan. Her story is both heartbreaking and inspirational.

Partyka: My son, like so many people on Medicaid, works over 40 hours a week. People on Medicaid are not the “parasite class,” as this horrible, out-of-touch administration has described them. They are your friends and your neighbors—and in this case, he is my son. He receives necessary, life-saving help. Many people on Medicaid are hardworking individuals who simply don’t receive health insurance through their jobs. House Republicans, you are now being given a second chance to do what is right. Stealing from the poor and the sick to give to billionaires is not the way to be on the right side of history.

"64% of the constituents in this district, CA-22, are on Medicaid. That is about half a million people. It is, in fact, the most people on Medicaid anywhere in a Republican district... everybody in this district needs their Medicaid and Valadeo doesn't care" @jonbowzerbauman

Republican politicians cutting Medicaid coverage, including funding for maternal health care? So much for the "pro-life" party. I will always defend Medicaid coverage for the hundreds of thousands of Delawareans - and the millions of Americans - who rely on it for care.

Leader Jeffries: We're deadly serious about addressing the Republican caused health care crisis because it's a deadly serious issue for the American people. The largest cut to Medicaid in American history. Hospitals, nursing homes and community health clinics closing. More than 20 million Americans on the brink of experiencing dramatically increased premiums because of the Republican refusal to extend the ACA tax credits

Clark: The Louisiana state legislature passed a resolution condemning this bill because of the impact on Medicaid— Speaker Johnson's district, 40% of Louisianans are on Medicaid. Louisiana is a supermajority Republican. This is not easy to write off, as some woke institution that they don't believe in. They are telling us what the American people are telling us, that this is not the right thing to do.

Clark: Mike Johnson and Steve Scalise are both from Louisiana. Most children in Louisiana are on medicaid. 64% of all births in Louisiana are paid for by medicaid. 74% of nursing home residents in Louisiana are on medicaid. Yet Republicans are willing to shut down government, refusing to even show up for work this week because they want to cut medicaid by $1 trillion
