The Trump admin is about to cut housing grants for the formerly homeless.
HUD plans to cut aid for permanent housing by 66%, slashing over $2 billion and leaving 170,000 people at risk of homelessness again.
Everyone who would be affected is disabled, and many are 50 or older.

They have defunded Medicaid and Medicare.

Trump & the GOP are methodically exploding health insurance costs by upending the Affordable Care Act & gutting Medicaid.
Once we take our government back, we shouldn’t stop at repairing the ACA & Medicaid. We need to move to universal health care, such as Medicare for All.
That’s the solution.
