Protect Healthcare Access for All Oklahomans

The federal government is advancing a budget bill that threatens Oklahomans' access to the healthcare we need by reducing Medicaid funding and reducing our state's flexibility to determine how best to care for its citizens.

Over one million people in Oklahoma rely on Medicaid for healthcare coverage, including children, pregnant women, people with disabilities, and low-income adults who can't otherwise afford insurance.

If Medicaid is cut, families across the state could lose access to affordable healthcare – including your own friends, family, neighbors, and colleagues.

If more people lose their health insurance and are uninsured, healthcare costs will increase for everyone. Every person – from babies to seniors – deserves comprehensive, timely, and high-quality healthcare.

Tell your senators and representatives in Washington, D.C. to protect access to affordable healthcare in Oklahoma by ensuring the state's flexibility to determine the best way to care for Oklahomans.

Subject: Protect healthcare access in our state!

Dear [Legislator],

I am deeply concerned about the Medicaid budget bill Congress is currently considering. 


More than one million Oklahomans rely on Medicaid for healthcare coverage. Half of the program's enrollees are children, and the rest include pregnant women, people with disabilities, and low-income adults who can't otherwise afford insurance. Changes to eligibility and cuts in federal payments could lead to families across Oklahoma losing access to vital care, including preventive services essential for maintaining a healthy population. 


Medicaid is an essential lifeline for healthcare access in our state for healthy individuals, families, communities, businesses, and healthcare systems. Everyone – from babies to seniors – deserves comprehensive, timely, and high-quality care. Furthermore, maintaining Oklahoma's flexibility to administer Medicaid and respond to local market changes is crucial. 


Just this week, President Trump doubled down on his opposition to Medicaid cuts. I encourage you to stand with the President in defending this essential program. 


If Medicaid funding is cut, we are all at risk of losing affordable healthcare – not just those on Medicaid.  I strongly urge you to take action to protect affordable, accessible healthcare for all Oklahomans! 



Sincerely,
[Name]
