Sixteen House Republicans just sent a letter to Senators, supposedly claiming to be concerned about devastating Medicaid cuts. Here’s the kicker: they already voted for the bill that would rip healthcare away from millions, threaten rural hospitals, and gut critical care for our most vulnerable.
Washington won’t be spared.
Trump’s so-called “big beautiful bill” is nothing more than a full-on assault on working families across our state:
- It would slash Apple Health, threatening care for over 1.8 million Washingtonians.
- It would slash SNAP benefits, putting nearly 900,000 of our neighbors at risk of going hungry.
- It would gut VA services—while giving away $7 trillion in tax breaks to billionaires.
This is not fiscal responsibility, it’s cruelty.
And don’t be fooled by Republicans suddenly backpedaling. If they’re truly concerned about protecting Medicaid, they’ll vote NO when this budget comes back up for a vote.
We’re done playing defense. We need to organize, fund our fight, and elect Democrats who will protect healthcare, not rip it away. With our end-of-quarter fundraising deadline on Monday, can we count on you to chip in today to help us hold the line in Washington?
We can’t afford to sit this out. The stakes are too high.
In solidarity,
Chair Shasti Conrad
