Tax Bill – With ACA Repeal – Moving To Senate Floor For Vote

Tax Bill – with ACA Repeal – Moving to Senate Floor for Vote

Just a few hours ago, Senate Republicans advanced their tax proposal out of the Senate Budget Committee, clearing the path for a Senate floor vote. This proposal, which has retained the individual mandate repeal, could now be up for a vote on the floor as early as this Thursday.

Their plan would result in:

13 million people losing coverage
Premiums increasing by 10%
Harmful cuts to Medicaid and Medicare
A tremendous hole in the deficit, setting the stage for further health care cuts down the road

We may have less than 48 hours to stop Senate Republicans from voting to strip health care from millions to fund tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy. CALL TODAY! 202-224-3121 or 866-426-2631

Call your Members of Congress TODAY. Tell them to oppose tax cuts that increase the deficit or that decrease the number of people with health insurance, including by repealing the individual mandate. Share our call-to-action graphic on Facebook and Twitter.

Celebrating Second Chance Month

The work of building a better reentry system in Kentucky is not something any one organization can do alone. Kentucky Voices for Health leads the Healthy Reentry Coalition, a growing network of directly impacted advocates, services providers, and community members committed to creating a healthier, more just path home for all incarcerated Kentuckians. Our goal as a coalition is to provide support through education and awareness of policies and share resources and events among members. This work has traditionally focused on adult reentry, but we are working to bring in more voices from across the Commonwealth, particularly those either directly or indirectly impacted by the juvenile justice system. The coalition meets every third Thursday of the month. Our next meeting is April 16th, and we would love to have you there. If you are interested in joining or learning more, reach out directly to Brittany Elam at brittany@kyvoicesforhealth.org.
