Protect Care, Lower Costs, Put Workers and Families First
The American people are the ones who suffer when the government shuts down. This crisis was avoidable but President Trump and Republicans chose to defund healthcare rather than keep the government open. The shutdown will force hospitals to close, strip millions of their health insurance and drive up premiums for millions more.
The fight is about more than a budget line. It’s about whether families can afford both rent and healthcare. It’s about whether educators, healthcare workers and public employees have the resources and respect they need to do their jobs well. It’s about whether our government works for the people—or collapses into chaos.
Our call is simple: fix healthcare, open the government, and put workers and families first—not corporations and politics.
