This week, the House and Senate are continuing to negotiate budget bills to support tax cuts. To pay for the tax credits, some Congressional Republicans have targeted Medicaid for massive cuts. If Congress cuts Medicaid, states and school districts will not have the federal funds needed to pay for the vital services that many infants, toddlers, and children with disabilities need. Nearly all States use Medicaid to finance Part C early intervention services for children who qualify for both programs and on average, about half of children served in Part C are enrolled in Medicaid. The cuts to Medicaid also threaten access to services for millions of qualifying school-age children with disabilities who rely on Medicaid for therapies/services, technology, and other support in school.

Tell Congress to support Medicaid and protect children with disabilities.
