Good Morning:
Yesterday, we received notice that Representatives Carter (R-GA) and Cammack (R-FL) sent around a sign-on letter advocating for the Administration to repeal the 80-20 rule in Medicaid. This letter was sent to all House Representatives seeking offices to sign-on. We are hoping that those of you who have relationships with House Republicans can reach out and ask them to sign-on to the letter. We are specifically looking at House Energy and Commerce members, but any House Representative would be welcome!
Though we would love this to be a Bipartisan letter, Democrats have historically been unwilling to support a repeal of 80-20 so we do not anticipate that asking those offices to sign-on would be fruitful or a good use of time.
The Deadline for House Members to join the letter is this Friday, January 31st.
Please complete the Action Item Here: The Alliance for Care at Home | Medicaid 80-20 Sign On Letter
Also, once you have completed, please get out to your entire network to ask for support. It's all of our job to protect Medicaid HCBS!
Please let me (dterzaghi@allianceforcareathome.org) know if you have any questions or concerns!
