Citizen Action/Illinois
Mike Bost: Protect Our Care
Join Southern Illinois doctors, nurses, and patients for a Protect Our Care press conference outside Bost's district office. We’ll stand together to call out the harm caused by their votes to slash Medicaid and Medicare — and to demand action before Affordable Care Act subsidies expire, sending premiums even higher.
Healthcare providers will speak about the real-life consequences that these cuts will have: patients losing coverage, rural clinics under strain, and skyrocketing costs forcing Iowans to delay or skip care.
Medicaid and Medicare have already been slashed, and if ACA subsidies are allowed to expire, thousands more Iowa families will face impossible choices between paying for care or paying for other essentials. This is our chance to hold our elected officials accountable.
