Event Overview
It took 60 years for Medicaid to expand health care access to over 70 million Americans with low incomes and/or disabilities. As the U.S. now faces the largest federal subsidy rollback in history, how can Americans keep the struggle for health care justice moving forward — and can California’s fight to preserve historic expansions of Medi-Cal, its version of Medicaid, serve as a model for the rest of the country?
This national briefing will feature a medical director at the country’s largest federally qualified community health center, a nationally recognized expert on Medicaid, and two veteran health care advocates in California and Washington, D.C.
