Even if you weren't able to make it, you can support them by making phone calls to your Senators and other crucial votes. Please take time to call today! Every phone call is critical. Senator Schumer has told us the bill's supporters report not hearing much opposition. This bill would cut up to $45 BILLION dollars from healthcare in New York alone by 2026. That is $45 billion in lost services. That is $45 billion in cuts. That is $45 billion that will result in death and institutionalization. Please take time to make some calls today to make sure your voice is heard. Call the Senate switchboard at: 202-224-3121. In addition to your own Senators, please call these critical Senators as well: * Senator Capito (West Virginia) * Senator Collins (Maine) * Senator Murkowski (Alaska) The message is simple. "Graham-Cassidy will impose draconian cuts on Medicaid that will kill people with disabilities. Please vote no."
