PROTECT MEDICAID AND SNAP

MEDICAID & SNAP ARE IN DANGER!

A budget plan with deep tax cuts will be adopted in the early part of 2025. To pay for those tax cuts, our elected officials intend to slash Medicaid (“TennCare” in Tennessee) and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, formerly known as “food stamps”). If that budget includes cuts to Medicaid and SNAP as leaders plan, Congress will likely cripple those programs and use the savings to pay for the big tax cuts.
