WHY MEDI-CAL MATTERS
In CA, 14.9 million of us rely on Medi-Cal. It covers the doctor visit, the emergency room trip, the prescription, and the mental health support that helps you hold everything together.
​
These are the very resources that ensure we get to celebrate more birthdays, see more milestones, and cherish more moments with our loved ones.
​
That care is being dismantled in real time. Since Trump signed his Medicaid cuts into law, more than 200,000 LA County residents have already lost coverage, roughly 1,100 people a day, and one in five of them is a child.
Clinics are closing their doors. Nationwide, the law strips nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid, and California loses $30 billion every single year.
​
This isn't a line in a federal budget. It's whether our community can see a doctor when it matters most.
And it’s still just the beginning of the damage.
