Cancer Survivor’s Plea to Young Kim: “Vote No” to Taking Away Our Health Care

In a letter to the LA Times Daily Pilot, a Fullerton cancer survivor who relies on Medicaid for lifesaving care is urging Young Kim to protect her health care. 

The letter comes after Kim cast the deciding vote on the GOP Tax Scam – ripping away health care from over 31,000 people and gutting food assistance for nearly 15,000 households in her district, and is set to take another vote on even more devastating cuts this week.

LA Times Daily Pilot: Mailbag: Urge Rep. Kim to vote ‘no’ on taking basic health care away from people

  • Americans will live sicker and die sooner if Congress approves massive cuts to Medicaid, marketplace plans and private insurance. But it’s not too late for Rep. Young Kim to stand up for her constituents…
  • This week, I joined the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network to deliver a clear message at Rep. Kim’s Anaheim office: Vote “no” on taking basic health care away from nearly 11 million people nationwide.
  • Instead of working to lower costs, Congress is moving quickly to slash at least $793 billion over 10 years from Medicaid and raise the costs of premiums and services for millions of people.
  • As a cancer survivor who relies on Medicaid for lifesaving care, I call on Rep. Kim to vote against these devastating cuts that make it more difficult and more expensive for people to get the care they need.
