The Need for Advocacy is Immediate
It’s clear that our state and our nation are hurting. That is why now is the worst time to talk about eliminating the safety net programs that are sustaining vulnerable Washingtonians.
There are two big threats on the horizon:
Threats at the statewide level
Washington State legislators returned to Olympia on January 9th for regular session, where they will be addressing a $1.5 billion deficit. We simply can?t cut our way out of this crisis. Send a message to your policymakers that health care can’t take any more cuts and we need to raise revenue to save essential services!
Threats at the federal level
Meanwhile, Congress continues to deliberate on the future of our health care safety net, including debating federal support for the expansion of health centers and proposals to change the Medicaid program. Sign the petition to save America’s community health centers!
Don’t let our policymakers put community health centers and their patients on the chopping block. We can only make change happen if we stand together! Join us!
