Our battle to protect Medicaid coverage for millions

America's healthcare purge is a crisis that threatens millions [Democracy for America Advocacy Fund](#) {NAME}, Medicaid is designed to provide health coverage to low-income adults, children, pregnant women, elderly adults, and people with disabilities. Now, America's healthcare system, long criticized for its glaring gaps and inequities, is facing a new crisis as a staggering number of Americans are being stripped of their Medicaid coverage with the majority of these removals due to technicalities, not because state officials determined they no longer meet Medicaid income limits. This threatens the very fabric of our nation's commitment to its most vulnerable. While President Biden has articulated the need for careful action, his office possesses more than just the power of rhetoric. The president can demand rigorous accountability, hold states responsible, and ensure that no one is denied their rightful access to healthcare.

That's why the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, protected the rights of the vulnerable to access the healthcare they need. Yet, in an alarming act of short-sightedness, this provision was rescinded in March 2023. It's a brazen display of administrative callousness when children and pregnant individuals are denied access to healthcare, not because they no longer qualify, but because of avoidable paperwork errors. And as we find ourselves in the midst of another spike in COVID cases, the situation grows more dire. We must rise up and demand change. This is a battle for the heart and soul of our nation's commitment to equality, justice, and the foundational belief that everyone deserves access to healthcare.
