Lancaster Medicaid Rally, Wednesday April 16
Hosted by: The Service Employees International Union (SEIU)
Time: Wednesday April 16, 5:30-6:30 pm
Location: 1 Penn Square Lancaster PA 17602
Featuring Reps. Nikki Rivera and Izzy Smith Wade-El, this event will rally against cuts to Medicaid. The proposed $880 billion in cuts to Medicaid would blow a hole in PA’s state budget. Cuts to Medicaid impact everyone who: has a kid in public school, has a parent in a nursing home, lives in a retirement community, wants strong hospitals to serve the community, has a family member with a disability, might one day lose a job or fall on hard times, might face an unexpected loss of coverage, might outlive their retirement savings and need nursing care. Medicaid is important to EVERYONE. Fight for it!
