FIGHTING FOR YOUR HEALTH

Dear Friend,

The election of Donald Trump coupled with Republican control of Congress pose a serious threat to programs and policies that protect our health. Radical changes to Medicare, Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, reproductive care, and other programs could drastically undermine our right to health care, cost New York State billions of dollars a year in federal funds. With so much of our State public health policy driven by federal funding, laws, regulations, and oversight, we must protect the federal policies and programs New York depends on, and respond with appropriate changes to State law when needed.

The first step in stopping or reversing the attacks from Washington is to clearly understand what's at stake and spread the word.
Please join me and State Senator Liz Krueger at a Town Hall Meeting on "Fighting for Your Health" to discuss these issues.
