Republicans in Congress: Stop Cutting Hospitals in Your Own Districts

The Issue

House Republicans voted to cut Medicaid. Now 196 hospitals in their own districts are at risk of closing.

A new analysis found 446 hospitals nationwide at high risk — most of them in communities that voted Republican. For small towns and rural areas, these aren't just hospitals. They're the only place to go when something goes wrong. The emergency room. The maternity ward. The mental health unit. When they close, there is nothing else.

Trump's bill promises $50 billion to protect rural hospitals. But the same bill is projected to strip $137 billion from rural Medicaid over the next decade. That's not a safety net. That's a bait and switch.

Your representatives made a choice that puts your community's hospital at risk. They need to hear from you.

We are calling on Republican members of Congress to reverse the Medicaid cuts before the hospitals their constituents depend on are forced to shut their doors.
