Most of the 1.9M people the ACA coverage gap are disproportionately people of color. Nationally, over 6 in 10 (61%) people in the coverage gap are people of color. This in part explains persisting disparities in health insurance coverage by race/ethnicity. kff.org/medicaid/issue-brief…

Most of the public holds favorable views of Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and the ACA. That includes majorities of Democrats, independents and Republicans for all but the ACA, which most Republicans view unfavorably: kff.org/medicaid/poll-findin…

Five states-California, New York, Texas, Florida, and Illinois-account for over one-third of the 23.3M increase in Medicaid/CHIP enrollment. As a result, large numbers of people could be affected by disenrollments in these states. kff.org/medicaid/issue-brief…

Among women ages 18-35 with a recent health care visit, more than 4 in 10 report their provider either dismissed their concerns, assumed something about them, thought they were lying, were to blame for their health problems, or discriminated against them. kff.org/womens-health-policy…

Equity is about fairness. It means everybody gets what they need based on their own situation. Because, we’re not all the same. #KnowTheDifference.
Two illustrations side-by-side. On the left, the illustration depicts equality. Four people of different ages, ability status, and races are on a curb and attempting to cross the street. On the right, the illustration depicts equity. The same four people are crossing the street but there are added elements making it easier for all people to cross, including an audible pedestrian crosswalk signal.

#BlackHistoryMonth is a chance to reflect, celebrate, and lift up Black joy, achievement, and excellence. We need to hear these stories most. Retweet to show your support for the remarkable, extraordinary Black people working to advance health equity.
Illustration symbolizing health equity. In the foreground is a Black person's hand holding a green caduceus. Behind the caduceus is a red medical symbol, and behind that is a community of people celebrating with their hands raised.

Visiting space aliens, upon seeing humans oppress — or kill — one another over who they worship, who they sleep with, what side of an arbitrary line they’re born on, or how absorptive their skin is to sunlight, would surely race home & report no sign of intelligent life on Earth.
