As the federal budget bill, H.R. 1, is being negotiated in Congress, the clock is ticking for you to make your voice heard. We still have time to let Congress know how important essential services are for children and families.

Nutrition and health care coverage are basics that children and families need to thrive, yet both are at risk in the budget bill for those in need. Cuts to Medicaid, which is the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS) in Arizona, would leave Arizonans without health care. Changes in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) would make private purchase marketplace plans unaffordable for many. Assistance with buying groceries is also at risk for struggling Arizonans as massive cuts are proposed to the nation’s most effective anti-hunger program, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).

How will these cuts impact you, your community, or people you know and care about? Please share this impact with your member of Congress today.

Congress D

Subject: Protect What Keeps Arizona Families Safe and Healthy

Message:

As your constituent, I urge you to reject any federal budget proposals that threaten Medicaid (AHCCCS) and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). These basic need programs are lifelines for hundreds of thousands of Arizonans — especially vulnerable children and Arizonans.

Cuts to Medicaid and SNAP would increase food insecurity, reduce access to health care, and deepen hardship for families who are already struggling to make ends meet. These cuts would be the largest in the history of these services, and they would harm Arizonans and Arizona’s economy.

Arizona has a bipartisan history of supporting health care delivered in a public-private partnership through AHCCCS. Voters like me approved expanding AHCCCS coverage for low-income Arizonans in 2000, and in 2013, Governor Jan Brewer signed a bill expanding eligibility for Arizona's Medicaid program, AHCCCS, under the Affordable Care Act. We still support basic services for Arizonans in need.

These historic cuts are too much, too fast. They will make life harder. Please stand up for Arizona families and the economy by protecting Medicaid and SNAP in the federal budget. Don’t make life harder.
