I joined ACS CAN NC cancer advocates at Senator Thom Tillis 's office today to highlight the importance of #Medicaid for cancer patients. We dropped off over 1,900 petitions from constituents urging Senator Tillis to #ProtectMedicaid from cuts. Do we have your support?

What an exciting day as our ACS CAN Alabama volunteer Gary Cornelius attended the Senate hearing on biomedical research funding - the kind that saved Gary's life. He also met with met w/ Robert Aderholt and Senator Katie Boyd Britt & Sen. Britt shared Gary's story w/ the committee. 🙏

The proposed #Medicaid cuts would result in at least 8.6 million people losing health coverage. That number could jump to 13.7 million by 2034 if the ACA enhanced premium tax credits expire at the end of this year, according to the CBO. #ProtectMedicaid newsweek.com/millions-face-…

“Medicaid was there for me when I needed it most. It gave me time, options & hope.”Cancer patients rely on Medicaid for health insurance. Without it, their lives could be at risk. @senthomtillis we are counting on you to #ProtectMedicaid.

Thank you Elizabeth in Senator Thom Tillis office for mtg with us today. As you heard, access to health coverage is one of the greatest predictors of whether or not someone survives their cancer. #ProtectMedicaid

We hope Senator Thom Tillis is listening to North Carolinians who know the proposed cuts to Medicaid are dangerous and deadly. This is NOT what people want. newsobserver.com/news/politics-…

Medicaid cuts will be disastrous for cancer care in America. Thank you to Danielle Battaglia and The News & Observer for giving our volunteers a voice in this beautiful cover story. We are grateful Senator Thom Tillis is listening.

Today the Senate passed a budget bill that will strip health insurance coverage from 12 million people. Cancer patients & survivors fiercely advocated against it. Thank you to Senator Thom Tillis for hearing them and voting no. fightcancer.org/releases/us-se…

Scott is a childhood cancer survivor. Research saved his life. Cuts to research and clinical trials will halt progress and innovation in the fight against cancer. Senator Thom Tillis please protect NIH, NCI, and CDC funding. We need more cures for kids with cancer #ProtectCancerCures
