Medicaid helps keep parents and children healthy and well. #ProtectMedicaid

Thank you to @cantwell.senate.gov for standing up for #healthcare, our economy, our families, and our futures. Check out her must-read report on rising healthcare costs. Republicans must stop the healthcare cuts & work for, not against, America. #TrumpsGovernmentShutdown

"When people tell me that #Medicaid has a lot of waste and fraud, I want to show them the mountains of paperwork and untold hours I spend on the phone coordinating Kinsley’s Medicaid eligibility and care."

Premium Tax Credits make health care affordable for 20M+ people. If they expire, millions won’t be able to go to the doctor. Join us in urging Congress to make health care tax credits permanent & repeal the health care cuts they passed earlier this year: commcat.io/467vrRn #CareNotCuts

Really glad to see disabled students centered and profiled in this article on changing cultures at schools and the shift toward stricter rules, which really harm many people with varying disabilities from ADHD to those needing to step out of class for medical needs.

Alexis tells @littlelobbyists.com that "All this information I’m seeing about Medicaid being cut is terrifying. Watching my daughter almost die time after time has been so traumatizing." Kinsley was born with two rare diseases, and then she got cancer.

Listen to the experts. Listen to your doctor. Listen to your body.

This week, ICE agents in Leominster, MA detained a 5-year old girl to pressure her father to surrender to ICE. In response, CTAN issued the following statement: www.nbcboston.com/news/local/i...

There appears to be NO red line they won't cross.

NEW: A majority of voters (65%) think medical aid in dying — or, “physician-assisted suicide” — should be an option for someone with a terminal illness.

“The long history of trying to ‘cure’ or eliminate autism has been a history of terrible abuse and dangerous sham treatments." I spoke to @autisticadvocacy.org's Greg Robinson and @drstevenkapp.bsky.social about the awful autism presser yesterday. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Medically complex and disable children shouldn’t be bargaining chips, period. This outrageous act by #immigration officials is inexcusable and ultimately led to the separation of this 5-year-old autistic girl from Massachusetts 😡

Today’s announcement by RFK Jr. will likely lead to blaming parents if their children are diagnosed with autism & discouraging the safe use of Tylenol to appropriately manage pain and fever during pregnancy. www.americanprogress.org/press/statem...

There are going to be a lot of Autism Parents who celebrate this. There are even going to be disabled people who cheerlead MAHA for this. It's still catastrophic.

Tylenol does not cause autism. Autistic kids do not need to be cured. Okay thanks bye.

Put together a starter pack of partners, friends, and allies working to protect #Medicaid Check them out and give them a follow!

Meet Vivian, an 11-year-old who is already advocating for herself and fellow medically complex children. Thanks to #Medicaid coverage, she is able to live a full and active life in her community.

Today @delauro.house.gov & @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social reintroduced the FAMILY Act to make sure all working people have the time they need to care for themselves and their families.

As the FAMILY Act is being reintroduced today, we’re calling on you to email your lawmakers: tell them to support this legislation to ensure all workers can take the time they need without risking their job or income. #ForFAMILY #PaidLeaveForAll https://act.nationalpartnership.org/a/family-act

Emma was born at 27 weeks, fought through 110 days in the NICU & now thrives at home thanks to Medicaid. From tube feeds to therapy, Medicaid keeps her safe & growing. Spend a day with Emma’s family & see why this care is vital → littlelobbyists.org/emmas-story-...

Moms & parents can’t afford Trump’s rising costs. Coffee is up 33%. Vegetables are up 40%. Washing machines cost 12% more. Healthcare & childcare are up. Costs are rising under Trump’s presidency. His policies aren’t working. It’s #Trumpflation.

The cost of everyday essentials like groceries, gas, health care, and household goods is skyrocketing under Trump's presidency, with tariffs costing American families up to $2,400 a year on average. #Trumpflation #MomSky

WE AGREE WITH @ossoff.senate.gov #RFKJrMustResign

RFK Jr. testifies today on dismantling the CDC Remember: #RFKjr spreads #COVID conspiracies, rejects vaccines, says phones cause cancer, blames school shootings on meds, and pushes “wellness camps” 1,000+ HHS staff said it best: RFK Jr. puts Americans’ health at risk #RFKjrMustResign

“For me, everything good, everything magical happens when we’re fighting to #ProtectMedicaid”

RIGHT NOW: @LittleLobbyists families are attending the hearing in-person this morning to bear witness in protest of the HHS policies that harm our kids with complex medical needs and disabilities. Live C-SPAN coverage of HHS Sec. #RFKjrs testimony can be viewed at the link below —>

They called it a “budget bill.” We call it the largest health care cut in U.S. history – over $1 TRILLION ripped away from working families to fund billionaire tax breaks – which will force over 20 million Americans to pay an average of 75 percent more for their healthcare coverage.

We are so thankful to all of the Little Lobbyists families who traveled to Washington, D.C., to participate in the #ProtectMedicaid vigil and walk the halls of Congress alongside their medically complex children. Here are some of a favorite 📸 from the past few days. More to come!

#medicaidcutskill #ProtectMedicaid Rob's life, like so many others who depend on Medicaid to stay healthy and stay in their communities--it's on the line. Rob had a few things to say about this yesterday: [ID: Mom & dad with Rob as we speak about Medicaid cuts in the Cannon HOB rotunda]

Yesterday, we brought the #MedicaidVigil to the halls of Congress. We were joined by Steve Way and Patrice from Patrice: The Movie to tell our stories Congress needs to continue hearing from us – keep calling, keep writing. Text ACTION to 227464. #ProtectMedicaid

Sharing why I fight to protect and expand Medicaid. What’s your why? #ProtectMedicaid Join the livestream here: protectmedicaidvigil.com @caringacross.org @littlelobbyists.com

They said we'll "get over it." We won't. Congress has passed the largest cuts to care in history – gutting Medicaid, Medicare, and the #AffordableCareAct by more than one trillion dollars, in favor for tax cuts for billionaires. We will not simply "get over" losing our care! #ProtectMedicaid

Millions of people will lose access to life-saving care due to the Medicaid cuts. This is a humanitarian crisis in the making. Congress needs to act now and repeal the cuts to prevent this disaster. #MedicaidCutsKill

this is amazing. please support the #ProtectMedicaid vigil!!

We are in D.C., holding elected officials accountable. When our disabled, elderly, poor, and chronically ill begin dying due to lack of adequate medical care, I want those who voted to pass the OBBBA to remember: their deaths are on your hands. #MedicaidCutsKill #ProtectMedicaid #LittleLobbyists

We are incredibly proud of all of the @littlelobbyists.com families who have joined the vigil throughout the past few days — sharing some of our favorite photos in thread #ProtectMedicaid

There are still +17hrs to go in the #ProtectMedicaid vigil! You can tune in to listen to #Medicaid stories from people all across the country right now ⬇️ Just as @pelosi.house.gov said a couple of nights ago — even if you are not on #Medicaid, then you certainly know someone who is!

Alright, we are back from a quick break of doing all the doing — what did we miss #ProtectMedicaid?!

Couples who fight for Medicaid together stay together! #ProtectMedicaid Join the Medicaid vigil now through Saturday morning! More info and livestream here: protectmedicaidvigil.com @caringacross.org @littlelobbyists.com

Thank you for your leadership, @pelosi.house.gov! Your remarks inspired all the Little Lobbyists, who were excited to speak with you. Our work to #ProtectMedicaid is far from over — let’s keep up the fight!

💬 “I can't imagine if we didn't have #Medicaid and had to think every time we took her to the hospital.” We must #ProtectMedicaid care for kids like June. Share if you agree. ⬆️

Earlier today, @pelosi.house.gov met and greeted Little Lobbyists' families as they prepared to walk the halls of Congress and continue to urge lawmakers to #ProtectMedicaid

Congress has passed the largest cuts to care in our nation’s history. Now, I’m sending a message with @caringacrossgen so our electeds know: We won’t get over this and we won’t forget. Join me: go.caringacross.org/a/congress-a... #ProtectMedicaid

There's nothing more healing and more empowering right now than to be in community together. Enormously grateful to spend my time and my heart with those fighting the good fight to #ProtectMedicaid. 💪🏼❤️
