Quick signature: Tell Congress to close the Medicaid gap!
Everyone—regardless of race, class, or zip code—deserves to have health care coverage. Everyone.
Yet, there are still 10 states that have refused to expand Medicaid to low-income adults under the Affordable Care Act, leaving 1.6 million people in a Medicaid “gap” and uninsured. Medicaid expansion is crucial to ensure families, particularly people of color and people in rural America, have access to high quality health care. In fact, the rural uninsured rate is nearly twice as high in non-expansion states as in expansion states.
