For too many Mississippians, quality, affordable health coverage and mental health care is out of reach. When people are struggling with their mental health, we should encourage them to get help, not burden them with debt. #CloseMScoveragegap act.fightcancer.org/a/urge-mississ…

Like many Mississippians, Brandon doesn't get health insurance through his job. He literally can’t afford to get sick or injured. Our hardworking friends and neighbors should have access to affordable coverage. #CloseMScoveragegap act.fightcancer.org/a/urge-mississ…

Tim went years without going to the doctor because he didn't have health coverage – and ended up with a cancer diagnosis. Mississippians like Tim can't afford to wait for health insurance #CloseMScoveragegap #msleg

Tens of thousands of American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network advocates urged the House Energy & Commerce Committee to reconsider Medicaid cuts that impact millions. Despite this, lawmakers who voted for these cuts chose to support the loss of health coverage for those with no other affordable options.

Thank you Rep. Bennie G. Thompson for voting against the House bill that will decimate #Medicaid & kick 8.6 million people off insurance. Supporting this lifesaving program—& the cancer patients, children & so many more who rely on it for health care—is the right thing to do.

The proposed cuts in the budget bill would kick nearly 11 million people off their health insurance, including cancer patients. You can't put a price on people's lives. U.S. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith , can I count on you to vote NO? #ProtectAffordableCare #ProtectMedicaid

Thank you Senator Roger Wicker for cosponsoring the #MCEDAct! We appreciate your commitment to this critical bill. Everyone deserves equitable access to #EarlyDetection of cancer. A bipartisan majority of Congress agrees: bit.ly/MCEDSupportMap
