Time is running out to #SaveMedicaidNJ. Tell Congress to oppose cuts to Medicaid and protect healthcare for New Jersey's most vulnerable citizens by signing this online petition from our partners at Advocates for Children of New Jersey ➡️ https://bit.ly/4dgGM3D.Congress is moving closer to a final vote that includes nearly $880 billion in cuts to federal Medicaid funding, along with cuts to other programs like the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and school meals. A bill may be ready for a vote as early as May 7th. Medicaid funds NJ FamilyCare, the health insurance program that nearly 20% of New Jersey residents rely on. Cuts will impact more than 859,000 children.Medicaid also assists adults with disabilities and seniors living in long-term care facilities. The cuts that Congress is considering may result in a $14 billion loss to New Jersey, and will force families into medical debt, and strain hospitals and nursing homes across our state.#TheCooperative #SouthJersey #SaveMedicaidNJ #HealthyPregnancies #HealthyBabies #HealthyFamilies #HealthyCommunities ...
