Don't let Medicaid get bargained away

Right now, leaders from both parties are in Washington, DC trying to make a deal on taxes and spending before we hit the so-called fiscal cliff.

Cuts to Medicaid should not be part of the deal. Period.

Something has to give. We have to find more money somewhere, but we shouldn’t find it in the pockets of the middle class, elderly, or working families who can’t afford it.

Please join with Daily Kos and our partners at SEIU by signing the petition calling on Congress to leave Medicare out of any and all fiscal cliff budget negotiations.
