President Trump and the GOP are planning to use the federal budget process to wage attacks on access to health care, affordability and consumer rights and protections, including behavioral and oral health care for low-income Californians, as well as immigrants, LGBTQ+ and reproductive rights. Over the next few weeks and months, the House and Senate will debate a tax cut plan that will give the wealthy a tax break paid for by massive cuts to Medi-Cal, Medicare, mental, oral and preventative health care services.

CPEHN’s Story Collection
Since the passage of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), over 5 million newly eligible Californians have gained access to health coverage, a majority communities of color through Medi-Cal and Covered California. But all of these gains are now at risk.
Please share your story about how the ACA has helped you or a community member. Your voice matters, and it will be what helps preserve this progress.
