Medicare and Medicaid (Badgercare) affects so many people in our community and we need to talk about it! Come with your Medicaid stories and make your voice heard at this town hall.

The Congressional Budget Office estimates that 14 million Americans will lose healthcare provided by Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act, if this budget is passed. The Center for Budget and Policy Priorities reports that 261,000 Wisconsinites will lose healthcare from a single provision in the budget—work requirements—alone! Medicaid takes care of one-third of the children in Wisconsin, one in three people with disabilities, and 400,000 Wisconsin adults. It’s a critical piece of infrastructure that keeps clinics and struggling rural hospitals open and is a major state and county economic driver and job provider.
