  1. CW: CW: Anti-trans policy, healthcare

    October 13, 2026. That's the date federal Medicare, Medicaid and CHIP dollars stop covering gender-affirming care for minors — under 18 for Medicaid and Medicare, under 19 for CHIP. Six months of grace after that, and then the kids already on hormones are cut off entirely.
    Roughly 35,000 public comments came in. #TransRights #TransYouth #LGBTQ #QueerNews #Healthcare #Medicaid #TransHealthcare #News #Journalism #Resist #Solidarity #Policy

  3. Anyone familiar with the new #medicaid work requirements?

    I am self employed but below their income threshold, is it easy to report hours for stuff like that? I write, research, and stream. I don't really keep track of the hours but I could, and it's generally 9-5 on week days.

    Stop fucking voting for republicans btw jesus christ.

  5. Please copy and paste into the form on the website of your Senators and Representative. Please share with friends. congress.gov/contact-us

    Dear Senator / Representative -

    According to the GAO, there are about 9 million Medicaid recipients who are working full-time, and 7.5 million who receive SNAP benefits.

    Every person with a full-time job should have affordable health insurance and make enough money to feed their family.

    I want you to do two things:

    1) Cosponsor and actively support the Living Wage for All Act, which would raise the minimum wage to $25 an hour.

    2) Sponsor and pass legislation to reverse Rule 10b-18 of the Security and Exchange Commission, the rule that allows companies to buy their own stock, thus driving up the value for shareholders while leaving workers with nothing. Stock buybacks were illegal throughout most of the 20th century because they were considered stock market manipulation. But in 1982 under President Reagan, the Securities and Exchange Commission passed rule 10b-18, which created a legal process for buybacks and opened the floodgates for companies to start repurchasing their stock en masse. This money, which used to be passed on to the employees as higher salaries and investment in new products or research, now drives up stock value for CEOs and stockholders.

    Start here to lessen inequality.

    I want you out front leading this.

  6. Washington state lawmakers and advocates thought that money would put the state on a path to cover nearly 1,200 lawfully present noncitizens. It turns out that it’ll only be enough for 173.

  10. Socialism. It’s a word that’s been demonized by #conservatives for decades, linking it to Soviet communism. And yet the #US has been engaging in corporate #socialism for, like, ever. Also, #Medicaid and #Medicare are socialist programs. voronoiapp.com/business/-The-C

  12. #Medicaid Work Rule Leaves #Homeless People in the Cold

    Conservatives who have long pushed for Medicaid work requirements often said vulnerable people would get a pass. But the federal government’s list of exemptions left off #homeless people.

  14. Republican changes to #Medicare and #Medicaid won't just hurt the 10 million who will lose their coverage. They will make everyone's #Healthcare more difficult and expensive. thefulcrum.us/health/h-r-1

  16. I'm in a position where I have to reach out for help from my family, friends, and correspondents here in our Fediverse. I do not do this: It's right there in my bio, that I won't use this great platform for fundraising or to sell anything; that I don't follow those who use it solely for such purpose. I'm a hypocrite I guess. I'm more than greatly concerned - I'm terrified that Society might not seize the huge opportunity here & now for the systemic change necessary to protect our #healthcare here in #VT, other rural areas, and around the country. Governance is great but governments are unreliable. This isn't charity, nor even mutual aid. This is about our sovereignty. I'm looking for a handful of people who'd like to be members in our effort. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

  26. In Nebraska, Americans begin to lose Medicaid under Trump's work rules

    On Saturday, Nebraska will become the first state to remove people from Medicaid for failing to meet new work requirements signed into law by President Trump.

    The state's Medicaid director said that roughly 200 Nebraskans will lose their coverage on Aug. 1.

  27. #Medicare and #Medicaid have existed only 7 years less than I have existed. And the Trumplicans want to decimate the programs. 😡

  28.  63% of nursing home care in the United States is funded by #Medicaid. Some states are even more dependent on Medicaid than the national average. For example, in West Virginia fully 77% of nursing home care is funded by Medicaid.

  29. Blanketing the airwaves with ads about healthcare, Republican candidates who voted to cut federal funding in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act are positioning themselves as advocates for lower costs. #wellness #medicaid #healthcare
