Hello, my name is (your name) from (city), and I’m contacting you because I am deeply concerned about proposed cuts to Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security and SNAP (nutrition Program). The stakes couldn’t be higher. We’re facing $715 billion in Medicaid cuts over the next decade with a direct attack on immigrant children and families, the elderly and nutrition services. These cuts would rip healthcare away from millions of Americans – all to give big tax cuts to billionaires.
In my family (add a short statement about how these cuts will impact you and your loved ones).
For millions of others, Medicaid covers 41% of all births in the United States, nearly half of children with special health care needs, and 5 in 8 nursing home residents.
Between the cuts to vital services and our essential departments like CDC, US Education Dept. and others, President Trump and the Congress has taken a hammer to the policies that help us survive – all for tax cuts to billionaires. Too many of us will be left behind. Our country is changing rapidly for the worse and I need your help to protect our rights, families, children and civil society. I need you to put the nation and its people over the profits of billionaires and wealthy corporations.
Can I count on you to honor your oath of office? And protect healthcare, food and nutrition and other vital services?
We have a plan for the future: Are you willing to say no to tax cuts for billionaires and fight for a future that:
Thank you.
