Please find updated data on the number of Michiganders on Medicaid. The below is a lengthy list of negative impacts and ends with this:
Michigan’s state budget would have a hole of over $2.9 billion with current SNAP and Medicaid cuts in 2026, and $26 billion over ten years from Medicaid alone. This would force the state to make difficult decisions and potentially cut optional Medicaid services. Optional services include many services that disabled people rely on, including HCBS, employment and education supports, and more.
It is time to reach back out to US Representatives. If the Senate passes this in the next day or two, it's back to the House. Include on your advocacy list John James, https://james.house.gov/, from Southeast Michigan, who announced a run for governor.
