We LOVE Medicaid is a bold, non-partisan campaign that celebrates the program millions rely on for dignity, care, and survival. Right now, Medicaid is under threat. Congress is advancing proposals to cut $700 billion from the program—jeopardizing the health and well-being of children, families, seniors, and people with disabilities.
This isn’t about politics—it’s about protecting our communities.
What is Medicaid? Medicaid is a government program providing essential healthcare to millions of children, families, seniors, and people with disabilities. The government ensures access to healthcare through Medicaid because a healthy population is essential for a strong workforce, economic stability, and overall societal well-being. By providing healthcare to vulnerable populations, Medicaid prevents costly emergencies, reduces the burden on hospitals, and supports children, families, and individuals in achieving their full potential.
WHY WE LOVE MEDICAID
- Mental Health Lifeline – Medicaid is the largest funder of mental health care in the U.S., providing therapy, counseling, and treatment to millions.
- Children’s Health Champion – Covering over 40% of all U.S. children, Medicaid ensures our youth have access to essential healthcare services.
- Support for Mothers and Babies – With 42% of all U.S. births covered, Medicaid provides critical prenatal and postnatal care.
- Safety Net for All – When private insurance falls short, Medicaid steps in as the essential safety net, especially for those with complex medical needs.
- Economic Engine – Every $1 invested in Medicaid generates over $2 in economic activity, bolstering hospitals, healthcare jobs, and local economies.
