Capitol switchboard: 888-245-0215
The House will be voting on the Ryan budget resolution by the end of the week. This is a blueprint, so to speak, for the 2012 Federal budget. It contains some terribly harmful health budget provisions, such as:
-- huge cuts to Medicaid through converting the program to block grants
-- converting Medicare into a voucher program
-- provisions that would gut the Affordable Care Act
In addition, the budget proposal includes a tax cut to wealthy Americans, leaving the rest of us to bear the brunt of massive budget cuts.
Please call your representative in the House TODAY to urge him/her to vote NO on the Ryan budget resolution!
