Medicaid Cuts are HERE as Part of Project 2025!

The worst-case scenario is unfolding before our eyes: The “One Big Baneful Bill Act,” which includes historic cuts to Medicaid as a core component of Project 2025, has just passed Congress and been signed into law on July 4, 2025. This is not a future threat; it is our current reality.

These devastating Medicaid cuts are set to fundamentally reshape healthcare for millions of Americans, especially low-income families, people with disabilities, and seniors. Here's what this means for us, right now:

Federal funding is being converted to block grants or per capita caps:
States now face fixed federal funding—regardless of actual need. This will force them to drastically cut services, limit eligibility, and reduce quality of care.

Work requirements and time limits are being imposed:
Many individuals who rely on Medicaid will lose coverage—even those already working or with serious health conditions

Mandatory benefits are being eliminated:
States now have the power to drop essential services like nursing home care and preventative care for children—leaving vulnerable populations without crucial support

Applying for and renewing coverage just got harder: Increased red tape, paperwork, and stricter asset verifications are creating immediate barriers for those who need coverage most.

These changes are not just an attack on our social safety net; they are an attack on the health and well-being of our communities. They prioritize ideology and corporate interests over the fundamental right to healthcare

Why This Underscores Our Need for the We the People Amendment (HJR54)

This stark reality underscores the critical, urgent need for the We the People Amendment. This proposed constitutional amendment aims to create a true democracy by:

✅ Asserting that a corporation is NOT a person
✅ Declaring that money is NOT speech

The We the People Amendment will empower everyday citizens, ensuring our government truly serves the people—not just powerful corporations and their well-funded agendas. Without it, policies like these Medicaid cuts—not to mention attacks on marginalized communities, climate, labor, LGBTQ+ rights, and more—will continue until we all join together to demand real democracy that protects vital public services.

Your voice matters! Together we can demand a government that works for ALL of us. Support the We the People Amendment and build against these harmful Medicaid cuts. Our healthcare, and the very foundation of a truly democratic society, depend on it!
