Urge Your Senators to Oppose Graham-Cassidy Bill!

This week, the Senate may consider the Graham-Cassidy bill—legislation to repeal the Affordable Care Act and significantly cut federal support for Medicaid programs. If enacted, this would:

• Allow insurance companies to charge more for those individuals with pre-existing health conditions.
• Allow states to more easily opt out of requiring quality health insurance options and comprehensive benefits.
• Expand the ability for individuals to purchase low quality health insurance benefits in lieu of more comprehensive coverage.
• Eliminate the individual and employer mandates.
• Dramatically reduce the federal commitment to Medicaid expansion.
• Further, the bill completely ends any federal support for Medicaid expansions in 2026.

Take action on our website, urge your senators to oppose the Graham-Cassidy bill. You can also identify your senators and see sample messages by entering your address.
