On May 6th, the NJ Assembly’s Health Committee hosted a hearing on the proposed federal Medicaid cuts. Earlier in the day, Assemblywoman Carol Murphy, Chair of the NJ Assembly Health Committee, joined healthcare advocates, providers, and Medicaid recipients to urge New Jersey’s members of Congress to vote NO on proposed Medicaid cuts.
The proposed $880 billion in cuts would devastate NJ FamilyCare/Medicaid, jeopardizing care for nearly 2 million residents, including 1 in 3 children, 4 in 7 nursing home residents, and hundreds of thousands of people with disabilities. With the second largest senior population in the country and more than third of children with cancer who are covered by Medicaid, NJ can’t afford cuts to Medicaid.
It is no doubt that Medicaid is a lifeline, and almost each of the speakers and testimonies at the hearing emphasized that. These cuts would gut essential services, strain the state budget, and put lives at risk.
Our message to Congress was loud and clear: No cuts to Medicaid. Health care for children, seniors, and people with disabilities must be protected. We thank everyone who showed up and spoke out in opposition to cuts to Medicaid.
