Nearly 80 million Americans receive health care through Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program, which provide critical care throughout all stages of life. Medicaid covers everything from childbirth to nursing home care and everything in between.
In NY21, Rep. Elise M. Stefanik’s district, the 229,888 people on Medicaid are at risk of losing their health care under Republican budget plans.
This includes 88,618 children under the age of 19 and 27,000 seniors over 65.
With many American families struggling to put food on the table, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program provides critical support for over 40 million Americans including children, seniors, veterans, and working parents.
Republican budget plans threaten the 117,000 people in NY21 who count on SNAP to put food on the table.
