It’s been one year since the federal Covid-19 public emergency ended and a massive ‘Medicaid unwinding’ began. During the height of the pandemic, states were barred by Congress from disenrolling Medicaid recipients from their rolls, but that came to an end last year. As a result, more than 20 million people lost their Medicaid coverage in the last year. About 1 in 5 people with Medicaid have been disenrolled, and nearly 1 out of 4 adults who were disenrolled are still uninsured today. Add your name to build pressure for Medicare for All!
Ro Khanna’s State-Based Universal Health Care Act would eliminate the “ERISA Problem” along with a number of other federal regulatory hurdles states might face in passing single payer systems. We should be pushing our New York delegation to sign on. Rep. Jamaal Bowman already has!

The Constitution of the United States does NOT give the president — not Donald Trump, not anyone — absolute criminal immunity for murder. The fact that Donald Trump thinks it does, and that he had a lawyer say that on his behalf on the record in a court of law, is all the more evidence that he must be held accountable for his crimes against the American people and our democracy. Click to add your name now if you agree.
MAGA’s plan to install Christian Nationalism as the law of the land, dubbed Project 2025, is the terrifying end game we are fighting desperately to prevent in this election.
