Real People. Real Care. Real Consequences.
Every day, Medicaid (Medi-Cal in California) delivers critical health care to millions of Californians: working parents, veterans, seniors, and children. It’s more than a government program. It’s a lifeline.
Right now, Congress is considering drastic cuts to Medicaid funding. These cuts would not only devastate the lives of those who depend on it, but also destabilize hospitals, clinics, and community support systems across the country.
“With Medicaid, it is a wonderful help. We can see our doctor and get our medication.”
— Alejandro & Yadira Marmolejo, Medicaid recipients and Partnership Member
What’s at Stake
Medicaid keeps people healthy—and keeps communities strong:
Access to doctors, prescriptions, and life-saving treatment
Preventive care that keeps people out of the ER
Mental health support and maternal care
Job security for frontline health workers
Stability for rural clinics and community hospitals
“The strongest of us in society are here to support the weakest of society.”
— Dr. Steve Gwiazdowski, NICU Medical Director, Partnership provider
Cuts Hurt Us All
Slashing Medicaid won’t just take away health care, it will increase emergency costs, close clinics, and push more families into crisis. For many, there is no safety net without Medicaid.
“We’ve seen that if people don’t have access to [Medicaid], they’re not going to see their doctor.”
— Dr. Mohamed A. Jalloh, Director of Health Equity, Partnership HealthPlan of California
Congress, Don’t Cut Medicaid.
We urge lawmakers to protect the care people depend on.
Protect our communities.
Protect Medicaid.
