Why Medicaid expansion became a surprisingly popular healthcare solution.
@MargaridaJorg17 @HCAN explains in the full #CareTalk ep: youtube.com/watch?v=gBVWK2mI…
We need to #TaxTheRich if we want affordable, accessible healthcare.
If you got a tax refund this year, no you didn't.
Because tariffs cost your family an extra $1,000 last year.
Healthcare premiums are tripling.
Gas prices are skyrocketing.
Rent, childcare, groceries—all more expensive.
Don't let them satiate you with a small refund, folks.
Pick a side.
➡️Patients struggling to afford care?
➡️Or corporations making billions by charging more?
We know where politicians SHOULD stand.
Protect Medicaid.
Strengthen Medicare.
Negotiate lower prices.
Stop corporate price gouging.
Healthcare isn’t unaffordable by accident.
Corporations set prices.
Corporations raise prices.
Corporations pocket profits.
And we get the bill.
We hear a lot of talk about “affordability.”
The question is: Are politicians willing to take on corporate price gouging?
This is the wrong way:
Cut Medicaid.
Kick millions off coverage.
Threaten hospitals and nursing homes.
Give tax breaks to the wealthy.
Here’s the right way:
Restore coverage.
Lower prices.
Take on corporate greed.
Build on Medicaid and Medicare.
Forward. Not backward.
Health care costs too much because corporations charge too much.
Insurance giants.
Drug corporations.
Wall Street investors.
They have too much power to raise prices and put profits ahead of patients.
It's time for Congress to step in and fight for lower prices.
Medicare and Medicaid Anniversary: Can We Protect Both Programs? #CareTalk live @MargaridaJorg17 @HCAN discusses w/ me @healthcarevoice @mswmediapods & @LouiseNorris @hio_org @madleyrachel @cforhd answer your health insurance questions.

Bruce Springsteen (though we love him) Tom Kean Jr., NJ billionaires and the ultra-wealthy are not paying their fair share of taxes on Tax Day. This is thanks to a vote from Tom Kean Jr. on the big ugly bill of last year. Read our press statement here: njcitizenaction.org/new_jers…

At least 88 companies reported $105B in profits last year, and paid $0 in taxes.
But Republicans want you to think someone working 40 hours a week for poverty wages, relying on SNAP and Medicaid to survive, is the problem.

Evolución de impuestos en USA.
A la derecha, los millonarios.
Es una guerra de clases y los ricos están arrasando toda vida.
As a result of over $1 trillion cut from Medicaid, 330 rural hospitals, 100 urban hospitals, 570 nursing homes, and nearly 200 Planned Parenthood health centers risk closure
The Congressional Budget Office estimates another 700,000 people will lose their insurance due to new requirements that require people to prove #Medicaid eligibility every six months instead of every year
