It’s past time to pass the #HEALAct, so im/migrant families can get the healthcare they need regardless of income or status. We’ll say it loud & proud: 📣PASS THE HEAL ACT! 📣

Im/migrant families and communities deserve healthcare, period. Income or status shouldn’t matter. So how do we make this happen? By passing the #HEAL Act and ensuring nobody goes without the care they need!

A huge thanks to Sen. Cory Booker, Rep. Pramila Jayapal, and Nanette D. Barragán for introducing the #HEALForImmigrants Act, which would remove barriers to care for im/migrant communities. Every single person deserves healthcare, regardless of income or documentation status!

It’s simple: Medicaid work requirements are a cut to healthcare. H.R. 1’s newly-enacted Medicaid work requirements are estimated to put millions of Americans - including AANHPIs - at risk of having their health coverage cut. More in-language graphics: bit.ly/APIAHF-WR
