Dear [Senator],
I am writing as your constituent to urge you to oppose the current budget-reconciliation bill, which would eliminate federal Medicaid reimbursements to many reproductive-health providers for ten years and slash hundreds of billions of dollars from Medicaid and related health-insurance programs. Experts warn these cuts will leave millions without coverage.
These cuts are dangerous because Medicaid finances a large share of U.S. births and is the primary payer of reproductive and maternal care. Rural clinics and hospitals rely on Medicaid reimbursements and may be forced to close if this funding disappears. Additionally, new work-requirement red tape will cause eligible families to lose coverage precisely when they need care the most.
I respectfully ask you to vote NO on any provision that removes Medicaid payments from qualified health-care providers. Please reject drastic cuts that would dismantle our health-care safety net. Finally, I urge you to publicly affirm that every person—regardless of income, disability, or location—deserves affordable, continuous health coverage.
Thank you for protecting the health and dignity of your constituents. I look forward to your response.
Sincerely,
[Your Full Name]
[Your Address or City, State]
