Dear Congress, Our care is essential. We can’t afford this shutdown or these cuts. Signed, all of us.

Stories remind us that we’re not alone, connect us, and make the invisible visible. Every story, like Ben's, reveals what care in America looks like and shows the real people who will be impacted by Medicaid cuts. https://stories.caringacross.org/question/how-does-medicaid-affect-your-life

The only things we should be gutting right now are pumpkins. 🎃 Happy #ProtectMedicaid Fall 🍁 🍃 🍂

Care is universal. No matter who we are or where we come from, we will all give and receive care at some point in our lives. When we invest in care, we’re investing in the well-being of our families, communities, and economy—something we all have a stake in.

#ICYMI: Beginning in November, New Mexico will become the first state in the U.S. to offer free child care to all residents regardless of income. Every family should have access to affordable child care. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/09/18/new-mexico-free-child-care-grisham

Together, we're ✨ UNLIMITED ✨ 💚 🩷

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

Congratulations to these Emmy winners who are transforming representation and sparking new conversations about care, aging, and disability. Also a big congratulations to Creative Care Council member Seth Rogen on his Emmy win for The Studio!

Medicaid is at the core of care for millions—it’s crucial for the health and well-being of families in every part of the country, ensuring that everyone can live and age with dignity. #ProtectMedicaid

Love. Service. Resilience. Survival. To every caregiver—thank you for your compassion, sacrifice, and dedication. We all deserve a future where we can support our loved ones how we want, with a care infrastructure that works for everyone. What does caregiving mean to you? What word would you add?

We are all part of a larger community of caregivers and care receivers—after all, there are 105.6 million unpaid caregivers in the United States. And none of us should have to navigate it alone. Add a “➕” if you agree!

Happy #GrandparentsDay! This one goes out to all the intergenerational caregivers stepping in to support with care needs. Look to the Care Inclusion Playbook for some action ideas that keep your stories feeling fresh AND authentic: https://bit.ly/3Hu29mr

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

“Parents of disabled children don’t have the time to hunt down details buried in evasive political jargon that have the potential to upend their lives. Moms like me are simply trying to keep our heads above water and keep our children alive.” www.nytimes.com/2025/08/21/o...

Sending solidarity to all the caregivers and care workers who support all of our communities on this #LaborDay

#BREAKING: The House has passed a budget that strips vital care from millions by gutting Medicaid. These cuts will hurt the health and well-being of children, aging adults, disabled people, and our families for generations. Our full statement: caringacross.org/news/house-p...

Thinking about how many people in the US don't realize they depend on Medicaid because it may be called something else in their state. #ProtectMedicaid! Call your Senators and tell them to vote NO! Chart from @caringacross.org

We are outraged by the recent actions taken by Senators who voted to gut Medicaid—a lifeline for millions of children, older adults, disabled people, and families across this country. Our full statement: caringacross.org/news/senate-...

Medicaid is a lifeline for millions of people and families across the country, not just a line in a budget. Congress shouldn't cut our care just to fund tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy. #DontKillOurMedicaid

Gender-affirming care is care. LGBTQ+ people deserve to receive the health care they need to live their lives with dignity and autonomy. Tell Congress: Protect LGBTQ+ people and #ProtectMedicaid! 🏳️‍⚧️✊🏽 Send a message now: bit.ly/3SEaOEM

Nearly 276,000 trans people depend on Medicaid for their care. The House just passed a bill with the largest Medicaid cuts ever, including a provision that strips medically-necessary healthcare from trans people. We won’t stop fighting. #ProtectMedicaid! www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Today, the House returns to office after their May recess. Let’s flood their inboxes with messages to let them know we’re not done fighting to #ProtectMedicaid. The fight isn’t over yet! 📩 TAKE ACTION: go.caringacross.org/a/housereces...

“Without my personal caregiver…it would grossly impact my life. I would end up in a state, county-run facility…I wouldn’t be able to thrive. I wouldn’t be able to have the life that I so honestly and richly deserve — that I earned.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

#BREAKING: This morning, the House passed massive cuts of nearly $800 billion to Medicaid and $500 billion to Medicare that will result in at least 14 million people losing health care coverage.

Right now, alongside our partners @seiuca.bsky.social @udw.org we are in Rep. Young Kim's district in California saying NO CUTS TO MEDI-CAL. Over 13 million people across the state depend on Medi-Cal for health care, and we won't stay silent! #ProtectMedicaid

🚨Last night, House leadership released budget reconciliation text that aims to cut Medicaid by at least $715 billion, putting essential care for millions at risk, just to fund tax breaks for the wealthy. 📞 Call your Congress Members and say #ProtectMedicaid! go.caringacross.org/a/call-congr...

Medicaid saves lives, and we will not stand by as Trump and Republicans work to cut this program and take away health care from millions of Americans, just so they can give a tax cut to billionaires. Proud to rally with @caringacross.org to protect Medicaid.

I’m still reeling from the #ProtectMedicaid 24 hour Storytelling vigil. The power, the tears, the love—all will carry is through the remaining fight. And I truly believe WE WILL WIN! Thank you to the amazing team at Caring Across Generations and all our partners!

Remember, cuts to Medicaid will not hurt all people equally - kids and people of color will be more likely to lose care. We must protect Medicaid! www.epi.org/blog/medicai...

Republicans want to cut Medicaid by $880 billion. It’s cruel. It’s evil. It’s against our mandate as public servants. I spoke at the @CaringAcross.org 24-hour vigil today with a clear message: I will not let Republicans take away your healthcare. Medicaid saves lives. Period.

Drastic cuts to Medicaid, SNAP, & other essential programs would hit our most vulnerable neighbors the hardest. That’s why I joined @caringacross.org at their 24-hour Medicaid vigil to fight for those who need us to be their voice here in Washington.

We’re 8 hours in, the sun has set, and we’re still here and ready for more. 🕯️ #ProtectMedicaid. Now. Always. See you in the livestream. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBo0...
