When you cut SNAP or Medicaid, you make it harder for Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders to thrive. Jessica’s story shows just how vital these programs are.

Republicans want to cut Medicaid by $880 billion. It’s cruel. It’s evil. It’s against our mandate as public servants. I spoke at the @CaringAcrossGen 24-hour vigil today with a clear message: I will not let Republicans take away your healthcare. Medicaid saves lives. Period.

When care is on the line, we need champions—not bystanders. Grateful to @SpeakerPelosi for showing up at the 24-hour Medicaid vigil to stand with caregivers, disabled people, and families. This is what real allyship looks like. #ProtectMedicaid
