Tomorrow, Congress is scheduled to vote on a Budget Resolution that mandates the House Energy and Commerce Committee, which oversees Medicaid, to make at least $880 billion in cuts to the federal budget over the next ten years. This can only happen by cutting Medicaid.
Why This Matters:
Federal Medicaid dollars help fund NJ FamilyCare, which provides health insurance coverage for 20% of New Jersey residents. This includes:
🔴 More than 820,000 children, from birth to 18 years old, covered by NJ FamilyCare
🔴 About a third of all births annually
🔴 Youth living in foster care and aging out of foster care
 ACT TODAY!
Your voice matters. Please email and/or call your member of Congress TODAY asking that they VOTE NO on the Budget Resolution. Your action can make a difference in the lives of New Jersey residents.
