Politicians claim the country is "too broke" to keep your local emergency rooms open, yet they always seem to find billions to fund warfare, mass deportations, and ICE raids. They don't have a deficit problem; they have a morality problem.
Slashing healthcare funding means:
-Prevention | Researchers estimate a 10% spike in new HIV infections over the next five years — and up to a 30% spike in rural states. ❌
-Coverage | Over 15 million Americans will lose their health coverage – the largest coverage loss in U.S. history. ❌
-Public Health | Thousands of jobs eliminated. Nearly 450 hospitals in 44 states at high risk of closing or cutting services. Public health safety nets like Medicaid/Medicare, SNAP, and more are being gutted. ❌
-Research Funding | Patients abandoned mid-treatment. Potential cures for HIV, cancer, and other diseases lost. The medical research pipeline will remain broken. ❌
