092225 Tell Congress: Stop Trump's Assault on Public Health
Earlier this year, Trump and Musk slashed $11 billion in health funding overnight.
Courts ruled in favor of states that sued to protect funds, but the funding is still in dispute. And now, communities are suffering.
The damage:
Health clinics shuttered
Kids' vaccines cut
Diabetes prevention eliminated while rates spike
Emergency dental care gone
HIV programs gutted mid-crisis
Health workers fired
Trump's health secretary talks about fighting disease while Trump destroys the programs that actually do it.
Counties got termination notices the day after cuts took effect. No warning. No transition. Just chaos in America's most vulnerable communities.
In solidarity,
