@whitehouse.senate.gov, @amo.house.gov, @magaziner.house.gov, Women and Infants Chief’ of Peds and OBGYN sounding the alarm on the devastating impact Medicaid cuts would have on our most vulnerable, children and and older adults. #protecthealthcare

Thanks to @epi-ri.bsky.social, @tiaramack.bsky.social, Rep Morales, United Way of RI and others for speaking on the importance of Equity Impact Statements as a tool to evaluate how legislation benefits/hurts communities.
